Jeremiah 23:1-6
Colossians 1:11-20
In many churches, Christians profess their faith by reciting the Apostles Creed. The Apostles Creed, as you probably know, is a very ancient statement of our faith. But it is not the most ancient. Probably the earliest profession of faith was very simple with only three words: Jesus Is Lord. That was it. Jesus is Lord. At first blush, the confession that “Jesus is Lord” seems simple enough, after all it’s only three words. But, as we’ll see, it covers a lot of territory. Actually, it covers all the territory.
