On Sunday, June 25, 2023, Pastor Joe Troutman preached "The Signs of the Covenant" from Colossians 2:11-15.
"Circumcision and baptism are signs that point to the wrath of God on sinners and the promise of God that all who believe in Jesus are raised in him."
1. Made Without Hands (v. 11)
11 In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ,
2. Buried and Raised with Him (vs. 12-15)
12 having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the powerful working of God, who raised him from the dead. 13 And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, 14 by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross. 15 He disarmed the rulers and authorities and put them to open shame, by triumphing over them in him.
