Sunday @ Asbury Chapel
We continue our study of Paul’s writing to the Colossians as we look at a message from chapter one verses thirteen and fourteen. The Message titled ““Rescued Us From Dead-End Alleys.”
The Message version “13-14 God rescued us from dead-end alleys and dark dungeons. He’s set us up in the kingdom of the Son He loves so much, the Son who got us out of the pit we were in, got rid of the sins we were doomed to keep repeating.”
Among its many rich passages, Colossians 1:13-14 stands out as a concise yet powerful declaration of Christ’s redemptive work. These verses are part of a larger section where Paul exalts Christ, depicting Him as the image of the invisible God and the creator of all things.
We invite you to join us Sunday at 9:30 AM as we look into God’s Word. Our church is located at 2704 South Highway W in Foley, MO. We have coffee available at 8:30 for some fellowship time prior to the service. Below you will find the message notes if you cannot attend. Our service is live streamed on Facebook.
“Rescued Us From Dead-End Alleys”
August 31, 2025
Colossians 1:13 – 14 (ESV)
We have been given many gifts from God:
1. Wisdom – This helps us know what to do and how to make wise decisions.
2. Peace – We do not need to pray for peace – sounds a bit radical doesn’t it?
3. Authority and Power – He has given us – it does not say He will give us. What if the church could grab onto that in our day – what if?
4. We are in right standing with God. – If we are in right standing with God why would He want to punish us.
