20/20 Focus on JESUS

20/20 Focus on JESUS
Each day we need to keep our eyes focused on JESUS - 20/20! I am sorry that I did not continue this blog into the beginning of 2021. Nine months passed by before I was convicted to return to this blog and encourage us to look at JESUS, with clear vision, via a daily scripture reading. Yellow highlights are names/descriptions of JESUS that we'll add to the list on the right.

2020 for JESUS - Day 44: JESUS is THE HEAD of the body (HIS body = the church)...

Colossians 2:16-23

16-   "Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration, or a Sabbath Day.

17-    These are a shadow of things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in CHRIST.

18-  Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you.  Such a person also goes into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with idle notions by their unspiritual mind.

19-  They have lost connection with THE HEAD, from WHOM the whole body, supported and held together by its ligaments and sinews, grows as GOD causes it to grow. 

20-   Since you died with CHRIST to the elemental spiritual forces of this world, why, as though you still belonged to the world, do you submit to its rules:

21-  'Do not handle!  Do not taste!  Do not touch!'

22-   These rules, which have to do with things that are all destined to perish with use, are based on merely human commands and teachings.  

23- Such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self-imposed worship, their false humility and their harsh treatment of the body, but they lack any value in restraining sensual indulgence."
