Colossians 2:2
The Great Mystery Leadership and Service Love Greenkill Conference Center Carr, Jerry 04/13/2007 04/13/2007
This teaching opens the 2007 Spring Advance and shows the context of the theme verse, Colossians 2:2, which is the Mystery. The Apostle Paul’s ministry was to serve, preach, live, and make known the Mystery. God’s heart, Paul’s heart, and Jerry Carr’s heart for the weekend is that believers would understand the Mystery, not only in head but in heart, be united in love, and be certain of the knowledge of the One Body and Christ in us to the end of living it.

He portrays examples of Paul’s life and some of the pressures he encountered as he and the believers stood on God’s Word and moved God’s Word. Shows how these believers continued to speak God’s Word with great boldness and joy. He highlights Paul’s example of leadership being up front with the people and taking the pressure on. Lastly, he demonstrates the importance of bearing up under pressure and continuing to move even when the pressures on.
