The sermon "Christ: All in All" by Tommy Walls emphasizes the supreme value and completeness found in Christ. Walls begins with analogies of finding hidden treasures to illustrate the excitement of discovering something valuable, paralleling this with the ultimate treasure of wisdom and knowledge hidden in Christ (Colossians 2:3). He highlights the richness of the Scriptures, which consistently point to Christ, and the necessity of the Holy Spirit to truly understand and see Christ in the Word.
Walls recounts the story of Jesus on the road to Emmaus, where Jesus expounded the Scriptures to reveal how they spoke of Him, making the disciples' hearts burn within them as they understood the Scriptures (Luke 24:27). He emphasizes that without the Holy Spirit, one cannot fully grasp the truths of the Bible, but with the Spirit’s illumination, Christ becomes vividly apparent.
The core message focuses on Colossians 3:11, which states that in Christ, there is no distinction between different groups of people—Greek or Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian or Scythian, slave or free—because Christ is all and in all. Walls discusses the divisions present in the New Testament times and how Christ breaks down these barriers, uniting believers through His love and truth. This unity in Christ transcends all social, ethnic, and religious distinctions.
Walls underscores the transformative power of Christ, who makes believers new creations. He illustrates how Christ’s presence in one’s life changes everything, promoting love and unity among diverse groups. He passionately declares that Christ is everything—fulfilling all roles, providing complete salvation, and embodying all that is good and true. He emphasizes that in Christ, believers find full redemption, justification, sanctification, and eternal joy.
The sermon concludes with a powerful reminder of Christ’s sacrificial love and resurrection, which secures eternal life and continual intercession for believers. Walls calls for a deepened love and cherishing of Christ, urging believers to fix their eyes on Him, the author and finisher of their faith, to experience transformation and unity in Him.
