What Do You Think About The Christ?
Colossians 1:9-18 (NKJV) 9 For this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge
of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
10 that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of
God;
Colossians 1:9-18 (NKJV) 11 strengthened with all might,
according to His glorious power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy; 12 giving thanks to the
Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light. 13 He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His
love,
Colossians 1:9-18 (NKJV) 14 in whom we have
redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins. 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by Him all
things were created that are in heaven and that are on
earth, visible and invisible,
Colossians 1:9-18 (NKJV) whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for
Him. 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things
consist. 18 And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may
have the preeminence.
