- Taylor Clarence Smith was Visiting Professor of New Testament. Smith is announced as Chapel speaker (0:00-0:08). A hymn is played (0:09-5:11). A word of prayer is followed by a hymn (cut) (5:12-6:52). Colossians 2:16-23 is the Scripture reading (6:53-8:34). The choir sings a song of worship (8:35-12:11). Smith begins his sermon by quoting from the books of Micah, Hosea, Psalms, and Matthew, focusing on Christians worshipping in shadows (12:12-16:18). Using the Scripture reading from Colossians, he emphasizes the Colossians’ integration of astral religion with the Christian faith (16:19-17:29). Smith explains that we have shadows, similar to the Jews’ shadows of worship of the altar and of the law (17:30-17:59). He lists several of these shadows, with the first one being the shadow of the manipulation of God—we use Him for our own advantages (18:00-24:01). Another shadow is one of admiration: instead of following Jesus’ teachings, we just admire and praise Him for His works (24:02-27:16). A third shadow is Bible worship, which involves those who “read” the Bible, but do not fully understand it or they place their own understandings on the Scriptures (27:17-27:48). This shadow leads to the belief that the Bible is God and just as the Pharisees, we can hide God behind the legalism of the Bible (27:49-30:52). Smith expresses that worshipping God is an encounter with a person not a book, and hence we should desire to turn away from worshipping God in the shadows (30:53-33:32). A word of prayer closes the sermon (33:32-33:59).
