God Made You Alive With Christ

Colossians 2:8-23

Key Verse 2:10

“and you have been given fullness in Christ, who is the head over every power and authority.”

Paul had been concerned about the Colossian Christian. He struggled for them in prayer, and  wrote them a beautiful letter which later became an indispensible Scripture in determining what is Gospel truth and what is not. In the letter he extols Christ and His redeeming work. He also warns them against false teachings and heresies that had already infiltrated the early church and had led some astray from the True Gospel and the True faith.

Colossians 2:1-5

Key Verse 2:2

“My purpose is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ.”

Colossians is a letter Paul had written to the Christians in Colossae. He did not know them personally since they were not his own converts but the converts of his disciple Epaphras. But he loved them as if they were his own. Even in the early stages of Gospel ministry, false prophets and teachers had begun to spread false gospels wherever the True Gospel was being preached. Paul could not stand by and watch perfectly healthy churches become infested with false doctrines. His genuine love for the … Read the rest
