The Mystery of Jesus | Colossians: The Fullness of God in Bodily Form
Manage episode 416823984 series 1256374
This week we’ll be studying Colossians 4:2-6 under the theme “The Mystery of Jesus.” The concept of God’s grace to ALL is truly an upside-down, otherworldly mystery to this fallen world. This week, we’ll learn how we should direct our prayers and lifestyle accordingly, for the purpose of evangelism.
The Church in Colossae was a product of Paul’s 3-year ministry in Ephesus. The Apostle Paul wrote the letter to combat a specific type of heresy—a combination of Eastern and Greek philosophy and Jewish legalism with elements of Gnosticism. The danger was not in denying Christianity altogether but in altering genuine Christianity with mysticism, legalism, Eastern religions, asceticism, and man-made philosophy—making it quite relevant to our contemporary pluralistic culture.
