Liberated

In Paul’s letter to the Colossians, he describes what Jesus has done for us. Those who have been buried with him in baptism and raised with him, have been given full life in him. While we were dead in our sin and controlled by our sinful nature, he did the following for us.

• He forgave all our sins.
• The ordinances that held us captive were cancelled by the cross.
• The spiritual rulers and powers that controlled us were stripped of their power.

(Colossians 2:13-15).
