Sunday Study Session — Weekly meeting time 10:15 in Room 301 at Owensboro Christian Church

June 21, 2026 —  Session 5: The Image Restored: Jesus as the True and Perfect Image Colossians 1:15, Hebrews 1:3, John 14:9 Handout — Audio Essay Focus: What we could not fix on our own, God fixed by sending His Son — the exact image of who God is. WHAT TO LOOK FOR Listen for the shock in these passages — the claim that Jesus is not just a good example but "the image of God" in a way no one else is. Notice that Paul and the author of Hebrews do not describe Jesus as becoming the image over time; He is the image. Watch how the image of God in Jesus is described in active terms: He holds all things together, He sustains the universe, He is the radiance of God's glory. SCRIPTURE Colossians 1:15 The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.

The Bible Is the Center of Focus Here!

General Statement God created the world, and it was very good. But sin brought disorder, devastation, and death to God’s creation and to humanity. The Old Testament tells the story of God’s patience with His rebellious covenant people and His promise to rescue sinners and restore His broken world. The New Testament announces that God has fulfilled those ancient promises, revealing His goodness and loving kindness by sending Jesus Christ, our Savior. The Gospels recount the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, the Savior and King. Acts shows how His followers carried His mission forward, proclaiming the gospel in the power of the Holy Spirit among all nations. The Epistles offer apostolic instruction for believers living between Jesus’ first and second comings. Revelation, written as a letter to seven churches, provides encouragement and challenge through vivid visions and symbolic imagery, giving us a glimpse of God’s plan for a renewed creation.
