Paul introduces himself as an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God. The words Paul writes are not merely the opinion of the great missionary but are the authoritative words of God. Here, Paul proclaims his testimony with his heart. In this message, we are challenged to test our own passion for the Gospel – “Do we have a testimony? Can we define our lives before and after we understood that Christ died for our salvation?”
Greeting
1Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother,
2To the saints and faithful brothers1 in Christ at Colossae:
Grace to you and peace from God our Father.

The challenge for today’s churches to remain rooted in the truth of the Gospel is not new. In fact, the church in Colossae during the days of the Apostle Paul was influenced by many worldly falsehoods, including superstition, mythology and even simple error in doctrinal translation. In his letter to the Colossians, Paul imposes two key messages which are as applicable today as they were then. First, he re-confirms that all things were created and hold together through Jesus Christ and that we must walk with Him and hold steadfast to our faith in His saving power. Paul then provides practical application for Christian living which we can still look to as a continual source of direction and guidance.
