“And Be Thankful”

by Alistair Begg

Colossians 3:12–17
 (ID: 3629)

What does it mean to be “in Christ”? Paul addressed this question in his letter to the church in Colossae, reminding them of Jesus’ transformative work while urging them to cultivate a heart of thankfulness. In this Thanksgiving message, Alistair Begg underscores the direct correlation between a transformed heart and a life that is lived out under the Lord Jesus. For the believer, such a life is characterized by an identity grounded in Christ, a unity marked by His love, and activity done in His name.
