Bible. Colossians
51:001:020 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him
to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether
they be things in earth, or things in heaven.
51:001:021 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind
by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled
51:001:022 In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy
and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:
51:001:023 If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not
moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard,
and which was preached to every creature which is under
heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;
51:001:024 Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that
which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for
his body's sake, which is the church:
51:001:025 Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of
God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God;
51:001:026 Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from
generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:
51:001:027 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory
of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you,
the hope of glory:
51:001:028 Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in
all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ
Jesus:
51:001:029 Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working,
which worketh in me mightily.
51:002:001 For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you,
and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my
face in the flesh;
51:002:002 That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in
love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of
understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God,
and of the Father, and of Christ;
51:002:003 In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
51:002:004 And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing
words.
51:002:005 For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the
spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness
of your faith in Christ.
51:002:006 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk
ye in him:
51:002:007 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye
have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
51:002:008 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain
deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the
world, and not after Christ.
51:002:009 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
