Expressions of Faith: Aliens


Once you were alienated from God and were enemies in your minds because of your evil behavior.
(Colossians 1:21 NIV)

Aliens

Alienation from God is something many people blame on God. Paul indicates here that alienation is in our minds as a result of our evil behavior. 

While probably not what you want to hear about why something bad has happened to you, Paul makes it very clear--humans are God's enemies because of their own doing--evil behavior.

Even though it's not Gods fault at all, He still provides reconciliation through Christ.


Amazing love. How can it be?
