As we continue in Colossians, we look at the supremacy of Christ who reveals who God is and how He redeems His people. In Colossians 1:3-8, we the fruit of the Gospel, how it produces faith in Christ and love for the saints, and gives us true, eternal hope.
Colossians 1:3-8 We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you,
4 since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love that you have for all the saints,
5 because of the hope laid up for you in heaven. Of this you have heard before in the word of the truth, the gospel,
6 which has come to you, as indeed in the whole world it is bearing fruit and increasing– as it also does among you, since the day you heard it and understood the grace of God in truth,
7 just as you learned it from Epaphras our beloved fellow servant. He is a faithful minister of Christ on your behalf
8 and has made known to us your love in the Spirit.
