Walk Through The Bible: Colossians
Text for Sermon: Colossians 1:1-2; 2:8-10, 13-15; 3:1-4, 12-14
Introduction.
We continue to make our way through Paul’s thirteen letters, arranged in the NT not chronologically but from longest to shortest. These are not the only letters Paul wrote. We know of two others written to the church in Corinth and another to the church in Laodicea, though it is possible that reference may be to the letter to the Ephesians.
Colossae was about 100 miles inland to the east of Ephesus, near Laodicea and Hierapolis. None of the churches in these areas were founded by Paul.
A native from Colossae, Epaphras, first preached the Gospel there and labored diligently in the Lord for them and for Laodicea and Hierapolis.
