Risen With Christ

writing to the Church at Colossae. Although he uses slightly different words, he says the same things he has said to the Ephesians about God’s plan of redemption. He doesn’t preach a new or different message to the Colossians. COLOSSIANS 1:15–20
Christ was quickened by God the Father: COLOSSIANS 2:12–15

Verse 12 says we were raised with Christ “through the faith of the operation of God.” Notice it was the Father who did this work. Verse 13 tells us that God not only quickened us at the same time He quickened Christ, but He also forgave our sins!

Paul is saying here in Colossians that it was God who formed the plan of redemption. It was God who raised Jesus from the dead. It was God who gave Him a Name above every other name. And it was God who spoiled the demonic principalities and powers who opposed the resurrection of Christ. Amen
