In his letter to the Colossians, Paul wants to make sure that the church not just sees Jesus as supreme but that he is supreme over their lives. An "All In" life recognizes the importance of living holy lives that are wholly devoted to Jesus.
Jesus Christ is supreme. He's supreme over creation, life, and death. The false teachers in Colossae, like many in our day, would not deny the importance of Jesus Christ.

In his letter to them, Paul wants to make sure that the church not just sees Jesus as supreme but that he is supreme over their lives. An "All In" life recognizes the importance of living holy lives that are wholly devoted to Jesus.
