Introduction

Paul contradicts wrong views of false teachers in Colossae who teach that Christians must follow the Mosaic Law. Paul exhorts the Colossian Congregation: Just as you have accepted Christ Jesus the Lord, go on walking in union with him [and not according to the law of Moses], being rooted and built up in [Christ] and being stabilized in the faith, just as you were taught, and overflowing with thanksgiving.-Colossians 2:6, 7. He helps the Colossians focus on important matters such as love, unity, peace, and gratitude, saying, Clothe yourselves with love, for it is a perfect bond of union. Also, let the peace of the Christ rule in your hearts, for you were called to that peace in one body. And show yourselves thankful.-Colossians 3:14, 15. As representatives of Jehovah, they should work...whole-souled as for Jehovah, and not for men. In the last chapter of Colossians, Paul further admonishes: Go on walking in wisdom toward those on the outside, making the best use of your time. Let your words always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should answer each person.-Colossians 4:5, 6.

An excerpt, chapter one

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation; because by means of him all other things were created in the heavens and on the earth, the things visible and the things invisible.-Colossians 1:15, 16.
