Colossians 1:15-19 – Jesus: Co-Creator of the New Creation – Dustin Smith and J. Dan Gill

Wonderful exposition by Dustin Smith and J. Dan Gill. Paul says many great things about Jesus in these verses. Does Paul mean that Jesus is God or a heavenly “super-being” or neither one? Dustin and J. Dan tell us that Paul is saying that Jesus as the true human son of God is the image of God; the firstborn from the dead and co-creator of the “new” creation.

Romans 9:5 “God Blessed Forever??” – Dustin Smith and J. Dan Gill

Dustin Smith and J. Dan Gill discuss Paul’s words in Romans 9:5. Is this an instance of Christ being called “God” or is it a doxology similar to others where the apostle is actually briefly praising God? Dustin and J. Dan demonstrate that the best understanding is that Paul is addressing God himself at that point in the verse.
