Core Truth: While as believers we are called to live out our faith in a very troubled and uncertain world, rather than reflecting that turmoil in our own lives, Christ’s desire is that by the power of the Holy Spirit and the sure Word of God we learn how to live above the turmoil and uncertainty as we demonstrate to a watching world what knowing Him as Lord and Master really means for all who are willing to put their trust in Him.
Scripture: Colossians 3:15-16
Let the peace which comes from Christ rule (act as umpire continually) in your hearts [deciding and settling with finality all questions that arise in your minds, in that peaceful state] to which as members of Christ’s one body you were also called to live. And be thankful [giving praise to God always]. Let the word[spoken by] Christ have its home in your hearts and minds and dwell in you in all its richness, as you teach and admonish and train one another in all insight and intelligence and wisdom in spiritual things, and as you sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, making melody to God with His grace in your hearts.
