About This Video
Shawn and Delaney explore Colossians 1:15–28, discussing Jesus as the image of the invisible God and firstborn over all creation. They unpack the difference between the “Word” and the “Son,” noting that Jesus becomes the full imprint of God only in the incarnation. The conversation explores how New Testament authors used Greek concepts like logos to reinterpret Old Testament ideas, emphasizing Jesus as the beginning of a new creation.
They challenge traditional doctrines like eternal sonship and critique materialist views of God acting through miracles, arguing instead that God allows all things and works through willing humans by the Spirit. The dialogue stresses personal responsibility, free will, and spiritual perception over rigid theology, culminating in a mature view of faith where believers are empowered to manage material life with God’s influence—but not control.
The episode closes on themes of spiritual evolution, divine allowance, and the ongoing choice between light and dark, self and God.
