Q1. (Colossians 1:5-6) Paul glorifies the gospel, the good news. What words does he use to describe the action of the gospel in verses 5 and 6? Given the temptation the recipients have to adopt another religious philosophy, why do you think he reminds them of the world scope of the gospel

>Faith and love springs from hope. You have heard, gospel have come, bearing fruit all over the world.
>Don't be led astray by the truth you have been taught. It is growing all over the world bearing good fruit. (Matthew 7:15-20; a good tree bears good fruit). He wants the body to not lose the freedom that God's grace provides.
>The message becomes diluted...only part truth...distorted truth. The Church ceases being a true example of Christ thus losing its effectiveness in connecting people to Christ.
This is my first post...bear with me as I try to figure the steps out. I don't believe this is where I was suppose to post. Wouldn't let me take it off.

Hello...My name is Colleen and my husband is Marlin...we are pursuing this study together just as we do most everything these past 29 years of marriage. We live in southern central Michigan, just south of Jackson MI, located in a small lake community. We are very excited to be included in this study and to have an opportunity to meet new friends in Christ! Blessings.

Dear Friend,
Welcome to the online Bible study forum for Discipleship Lessons from Colossians and Philemon Bible study.
It's exciting to meet other people who are involved in this Bible study. Why don't you check in and share a bit about yourself, and what state and country you are from. Please do NOT include your e-mail address. Be discrete about sharing private things about yourself.
Yours in Christ,
Pastor Ralph
