“For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.”
Colossians 2:9-13
This will be a Study of Col. 2:9-13, with the Lord’s help. There is nothing required or needed to be added to “Christ Our Perfection.” He was and shall always be the incarnate Word, the mighty God (Is. 9:6), God in the flesh: (“And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.” I Tim. 3:16) (“And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.” John 1:14) Yes! Amen! The holy, undefiled, harmless, perfect, God the Son. In whom dwelleth the Godhead (main verse): God the Father (Is. 9:6; Matt. 17:5; Col. 1:19); God the Son (I John 5:20; II John 1:3); God the Divine Holy Spirit (Luke 4:1), in the person of Jesus Christ. Absolute Perfection! Amen.
We in Christ Jesus made 100% whole, full completion in Christ. (Phil. 3:15) Our all in Christ: righteousness, eternal life, truth, life, being, perfection, complete in Him. By faith, working of the Divine Holy Spirit in us, uniting us with Christ Jesus our Salvation. Whom is the head of all. (“Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:” Eph. 1:21) (Col. 1:15-19; I Peter 3:22)
Because of Christ, sins of the flesh have been cutoff (circumcision of Christ). By His death, and burial: dead to sin and the world; His resurrection: we are resurrected in Christ a new life, by faith in our hearts whereby proving we are delivered from the curse of the law. (“For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.” Gal. 5:17) (Phil. 3:3)
Receiving the spiritual baptism (Rom. 6:3-4; I Cor. 12:13) likened to His burial, we cry Abba, Father. (Gal. 4:6) Christ being resurrected from the dead, we also are risen with Him; being made alive in our souls, we stand through the operation of God. (Eph. 1:19-20) Such a contradiction is seen in them who have gone on into sin and the world; so sad, with hearts grown hard and cold to the Word. The Word rolling off them as water, with no feeling. (Eph. 4:19)
God in forgiving us our sins; because of Christ’s shed blood and death upon Calvary our sins are dead (past, present, and future, all dead) (Great Salvation) (Rom. 3:25; Col. 3:13; Heb. 2:3), and we are quickened (made alive) in Christ, in our souls with Him. Even though we were dead (without feeling, without Christ), and still in sinful flesh (uncircumcised) (John 11:25). God hath quickened us together with His Son, Christ Jesus our Redeemer. (“Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)” Eph. 2:5) Yes! (Thank you, Dear Lord) “Christ Our Perfection”
