In this new series on Colossians: A Glorious Epistle, with the first message titled, "An Intro to the Epistle to the Colossians," we consider the background to the entire epistle. It is a wonderful letter written by Paul to this church, who were having difficulty with some false teaching that had entered their ranks. Paul will address the issues, and we consider our Intro under these headings, 1) The Background to this Epistle, 2) To those in Colossae, and 3) Grace & Peace to you. As always, I claim no originality, but will quote, cite, refer, to various sources including; Wilson, Hughes, Hendriksen, Calvin, Davenant, and many others. |
