Pastor Chris Partakers Of His Wisdom and of Christ; In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge (Colossians 2:1-3) In the verse above, the word wisdom is the Greek Sophia, which means insight into reality: learning, science, or hidden things, including enigmatic and symbolic language. It means discernment or penetrating insight into things that men find difficult to comprehend or unravel. This wisdom, the Bible says, is concealed in Christ. Therere two striking thoughts from our theme scripture that I want you to notice. First, notice that the verse didnt say, in Christ are hid SOME of the treasures of wisdom and knowledge; rather, it says, in Christ are hid ALL the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. Secondly, notice also that it didnt say in Jesus are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge; instead it says, Christ. Christ, in this context, refers to the Church, of which Jesus is the head, and we are His body. So, Jesus, you and me make up Christthe Church. Romans 8:17 lets us know that were joint heirs with Him; what He is, we have become; what belongs to Him belongs to us. This is because were members of the Body of Christ: Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular (1 Corinthians 12:27). Inside usevery one of us who are in Christare concealed all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. Therefore, nothing ought to be beyond your scope of understanding. You can know anything, and have insight into mysteries and secrets, for inside you is the wisdom of the Father. Colossians 2:9-10 says For in him (Christ) dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in him.: were one with Him (1 Corinthians 6:17). God deposited all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge in Him for us; so we have access to hidden wisdom. Confession I function at a high level of precision, excellence and perfection because the wisdom of God is at work in me; having been endowed with all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge in Christ, Halleluiah.
