Showing results for "Colossians" in Spirituality

The book of Colossians is a Prison Epistle (letter written while in prison). Paul wrote it circa 60-62 A.D. The key personalities include Paul, Timothy, Tychicus, Onesimus, Aristarchus, Mark, and Epaphras. It was written to counter and respond to heretical teachings and encourage believers to serve with fervor and passion. The basic problem was a Judaic-Gnostic heresy that sought to mix Greek philosophy with Christian theology. Gnostic philosophy taught that matter was evil.

The book of Colossians begins with thanksgiving for God's work building up the faith of the Christians at Colossae and allowing the Gospel to bear fruit in their lives. The writer, Paul the Apostle, then expresses the hope that we have in Christ and the effect that this knowledge should have on us individually, as a church body and in our everyday relationships. Pastor Jarrod Cruise delivers this series of sermons on this epistle which contains both inspiring truths and practical instruction.

From a prison cell in Rome, the Apostle Paul penned this corrective letter to the church at Colossae. Located in Asia Minor (modern Turkey) this ancient city was once a thriving community. Within a short period, less than 50 years, after the death and resurrection of Christ, they had succumbed to heretical doctrines influenced by paganism and a splinter of Judaism. Paul had to counter this false doctrine of angelic worship by reminding them that Christ is the "Icon" of the invisible God, and the Creator of all things.
