Dear friend,
I am so thankful that my wife and I were able to attend a Christian college together. The motto of our Alma Mater is "In all things Christ Preeminent." It comes from Colossians 1:18, "And He (Christ) is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything He might be preeminent." Christ's preeminence means He must be first in all things! He must be the number one priority in your life, because he is Master over everything.
That being the case, the Christian ought to be influenced by Christ in every area of life and in every field of discipline. The college we attended was not merely a Bible College, but a liberal arts school that taught music, language, science, education, art, philosophy, psychology, business, and much more. I appreciate the way the school curriculum proved that Jesus Christ has something important to say about each one of these subjects. In fact King Jesus rules over them all, because He is the Creator of the Universe!
Friend, do you recognize the authority of Jesus in your job, in your school, in your home, or even in your hobby? Ask yourself today how you can make sure He has first place in everything you do!
Your friend,
Stephen
