Highlights
The problem with many people is that they may know who Jesus is. You ask the average person in the street, they can tick all the boxes that Jesus is the Son of God, who came from heaven to die on the cross for the sins of His people. He was raised from the dead, ascended unto heaven, and one day He shall return again. But they do not believe these truths in their hearts.
The knowledge of Christ cannot stand alone without believing it in the heart. Salvation involves both knowledge and belief. That is why some theologians say there are some people who will miss heaven by six inches — six inches from the mind to the heart. It is not enough to say, I know who Jesus is. But do you truly believe Him in your heart?
That is what the Apostle Paul wanted the Colossians to have — a full assurance that Christ alone was sufficient for them.
You see, we may understand all these theological aspects of God being the Strengthener, the Provider, the Prince of Peace, the Controller and Sustainer of life and death. But the greater blessing is when you and I personally experience the reality of Christ being truly sufficient for all things. It takes not just knowledge but wisdom — the application of it — for us to be able to experience this reality.
