Title:  *MY DEBT NAILED TO THE CROSS*
Text:  Colossians 2:13-14
 
            *I hate debt!*
I don’t suppose any of you know what that’s about?!     Debts stack up every month:  Municipal bill, Pacific Bell, Satellite TV, State Farm, Mortgage Payment, cell phone, doctor bill, dentist bill, credit card, credit card, credit card…   *I even owe the State of Oregon a $1,000 for the trees just to print my monthly bills!*
Do you know how much that weighs on me?
The weight of debt is *very heavy!*
            I’m just glad I didn’t live back when Wells Fargo was just getting started.
If you were long past due on a payment, they came to your house and nailed a sign to your door: “Past Due!  Repossessed!”
            (Hold up picture album.)
You know what this is don’t you?  *It’s God’s record book of my sins!*  Don’t laugh…you should see *yours!* 
            (Leaf through the pages.)
Oh, I remember that one!
God, You say that one?!
And You kept track of all the times I did that one?!     *Oh, my!  How am I ever going to pay for all these sins?!!!!
This debt is too much to bare!!!*
*            *(Hold up sign: “Certificate of debt!”)  *Read Text*
            *Without a CANCELLATION of debt, all of us are dead in our tracks!*
* *
*            God nailed our certificate of debt to a tree on Calvary…but the nails first went through the flesh of His only Son!*
*            Jesus was saying to Satan, “If you want to see their certificate of debt, you are going to have to go through Me first!
Those debts belong to Me, because I paid for them in blood!”*
