Discuss Colossians 1 Page 21

I need more detell on the blood and what would have happen if he did not die on the cross for our sins....

What is the mystery Paul is talking about in verse 27?

I total agree with Kelly, people need to stop adding on to the word of God, Jesus never said he was God, He said he was the son of man, God was his father, and he also said he was a prophet.

HI, THIS CHAPTER HELPS ME REALIZE, JESUS AN GOD ARE THE SAME.... IT IS JUST HARD UNDERSTANDING JESUS SITTING AT THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD, SINCE HE IS GOD...

Christ gives us the power that sustains us to stay in God 's will and please God because being anxious is the opposite of patience,grumbling is a sign of lack of longsuffering spirit and thus there is no joy hence i love Christ for His power that causes us to be joyfull in all suffering and waiting patiently through all things.

Colossians really spoke to me this morning It gave me hope for what I m striving for which is perfection That s the goal for me To continue to grow in his word and become like him which is a perfect saint

Lets reason together the Bible clearly states that Jesus is the creator of everything i e the universe vegetation beasts and even man e t c and without Him nothing existed So would i be wrong to say that HE S God basing on Genesis 1 27 PLEASE MEDITATE UPON IT

The book of colossians 1 15 have just review exactly what Jesus christ is the word first born means the first spirit translated that JESUS is GOD because christains or non christains religeous or non religeous we all witness that it s God first and he is invisible God then why the first invisible God declare to you that JESUS is me and you no still believe

to me it means that he is perfect not good but perfect in every way the word good means superior to something else when compared to other things but the word perfect means unlike unblemished without flaw complete in the Fullness of Jehovah God incorruptible that is why in Col 1 19 it states that it pleased Jehovah to have all His fullness dwell in Him Christ not made by hands or conceived by a human but by almighty God Luke1 35 The Holy Spirit will come upon you and the Shadow of the Highest will overshadow you therefore also that Holy Spirit will be called the Son of God not sure but if Jehovah is incorruptable that which of Him must also be incorruptable pure logic if you asked me

The mystery or secret of JESUS CHRIST was in THE FATHERS plan from the beginning of time. JESUS was made known to at his birth. JESUS is the resurrection of the death in the garden.

That is to say,Jesus Christ is our Eternal Lord and God and Saviour.His essence,Power and Authority remain the same even before the beginning of all things,both those in Heaven and on earth and beneath the earth or the sea.Though all things shall pass but He is Everlasting God. He is known as the Mighty God and Everlasting Father( Isaiah 9:6),meaning He ever existed and created all things in His power ( John 1:1-3, Colossians 1:16). He is the Sustainer of all things ( Colossians 1:17),without Him nothing will exist ,including dark spirits. He is the Saviour of the world(Redeemer). He is the only Loving God who laid His life down to save all men from the death penalty of their sins when everybody had gone astray( Isaiah 53:4-6)-Behold,the Lamb of God Who takes away the sin of the world! ( John 1:29). He is the Supreme Judge for all humans( Matthew 25:31-46),and the Sovereign Lord Who is to come and reward the good deeds of men,and punish men for their wickedness( Revelation 22:12-13).

The ransom, a provision of God’s undeserved kindness, can clear our conscience of guilt and give us inner peace

jesus is not created whats dat verse 15b says the firstborn of every creature.the firstborn here is a spiritual meaning which we need 2 find in the scriptures

gives me stregth

@mike i agree

Truly a misquoted verse used by many people. The truth shall "make"you free. The one word "make" has a strong meaning, and when changed makes a huge impact . Instead of "make" it is stated "set". When something is set that means it is able to return back to where it came from, when you are made/make you are transformed, made a new. You don't have the ability to return to what you were. Once Christians see the importance of the word "make", they will see that God has equipped them with every tools necessary to live on this Earth in order to be a strong witness. The same "make" is used toward Abraham when God promised to make him a great nation and make his name great. God didn't set him a great nation or set his name great.
Christians have been "made free", Romans 8:1-2. It is important to cultivate wisely the God given talents and spirit He has already given when you
accepted Him. Romans 8:13-17.
Not only was God's plan to "make" people free, but to make Christians perfect, in order to bring Him glory. Christians CAN have the same testimony as Christ did on Earth, because He is Christ in them, Hebrews 13:20-21 Colossians 1:10-11.
"If the Son therefore shall make you free, he shall be free indeed." John 8:36

A great and blissful hope of joining our LORD and Saviour in HIS kingdom through HIS great love of REDEMPTION of those who asked for redemption by cleansing sins in HIS precious blood and preparing us to face boldly the powers of darkness.

Listening to Joyce Meyer this morning brought me to read this chapter, I was have problems with being steadfast in the gospel. After reading Colossians 1, I don't have to wounder about what peoples think, it reminded me to keep my mind on Jesus Christ, know that if I do so, I have the hope of Glory. Amen!!!....

Christ in us, the hope of glory;

Glory - manifestation of the attribute/nature of God.

Therefore, "Christ in me, the hope of glory" is also to say that, "Christ in me, the hope of manifesting the attribute/nature of God".
It can be also, "Christ in me, the hope of manifesting God".

If Christ is in you, there is hope for the manifestation of God through you. Amen

Versus 9 is the versus that stands out to me: (For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;) Which reminds me that my prayers should be about: God filling us with the desire to be filled with the knowledge of his will, with the correct interpretation of it....... Definitely extremely important in this walk with God, that we don't become ministers of false doctrine, and that we don't be ignorant ourselves; that we spent the rest of our days pleasing God, or at least have more opportunity to.

This may refer to the Jewish apocalyptic concept of a quota of "messianic woes" that are to be endured before the end of times (see Mt 23:29-32)

Saints and faithful brethren.

As a Christian how faithful am I? To The Lord ? To my family ? To my church? Oh God fill me with your Spirit to be a faithful man.

Jesus is the Son of Jehovah the Most High God, only true God, the almighty God, the Sovereign Lord.

Colossians chapter one is a fortress fortifying itself in the power of the Holy Ghost within revelation, which builds and rebuilds souls for the war to come.

This bible verses which i have known in a long time now have been one of my favourites.It empowers to know that we have been "...delivered from the domains of the powers of darkness and bein transferred into the kingdom of his dear son in whom we have redemption.through his blood,even the forgiveness of our sins"what a complete work of REDEMPTION!!! Glory to JEHOVAH. HALLELUYAH!!!

I find that Col.Chapt.1 vs. 16 sums up who I am in Christ Jesus. This verse keeps me in place as to my relationship with Him, knowing that I was created by Him for Him is nothing short of breathtaking.

"By him all tings consist." This is translated in the NLB, "... and he holds all creation together. This means that God, through his personality Jesus, sustains all functions, movements, and actions of his creatures. But he gives us freedom to choose our own course within the framework of this sustainability, and to see if we love him.

Let's state it this way. God (Jesus) sustains and provides all human functions. But man has freedom to determine how these functions are used. We see this all through the Bible. Man is commanded to choose between God and Satan. Then he is judged for his choices. God (Jesus) has determined that this is how he will deal with his creatures. It is out of his infinite wisdom and love for us.

This is called Free Moral Agency.
