About Colossians 1Paul and Timotheus give thanks for the Colossians' faith and love, which Epaphras "declared unto us," and pray that they may be "filled with the knowledge of his will" and "walk worthy of the Lord." Christ "is the image of the invisible God," by whom "all things were created," the head of the church, in whom "should all fulness dwell," and who has made "peace through the blood of his cross." Paul rejoices in his sufferings as a minister of "the mystery... which is Christ in you, the hope of glory."
