“Mesus” is a temptation for all of us; it’s self-projection. “McJesus” is consumerism gone bad, even with our faith–picking and choosing beliefs, even drawing from other religions. When these things happen, fear and anxiety can increase. They love a vacuum. They grow bigger and bigger as the Lordship of Jesus gets smaller and smaller.

This sermon is on Colossians 2:6-23. We look at the concerning syncretism of this young congregation, and how Paul opens their eyes to the realities of spiritual warfare and to the Lordship of Jesus. Why pander to the chittering minions in the walls of the castle, when you have immediate access to the majestic King of Kings on his glorious throne?

Matthew Ruttan
