Colossians

  • Paul writes to the people of Colossee wishing grace and peace and thanking them for their faith, hope and love
  • Christ is first; all things are created through Him and for Him; Christ first rose from the dead and made us friends with God again
  • Christ is our only hope for glory; so we share all God's teachings with other people to bring everyone to God
  • Paul in body is away from them, but with them in heart
  • Be strong in faith as taught and thankful
  • Don't be fooled by human teaching
  • Don't follow rules of people about eating, drinking, feats; hold tight to Christ - the rules don't really control sinful desires as they aim to
  • Paul tells of how you should live with your new life in Christ: think only of heaven, stop evil things for doing them is like serving a false God, forgive, love, everything you do, do for the Lord
  • Treat other people well
  • Always be kind and pleasant with talking with others
  • Paul tells of the people whit him and who he sends to the people
  • Share the letter with the church
