What Does Colossians 2:6-7 Teach Us about Our Faith Walk?

I have to confess. If you’ve ever given me directions or instructions, and those included more than three steps, I checked out on you before I heard that fourth directive. I don’t mean too, but for some reason my brain just shuts off after a moment because I start visualizing those first couple of steps.

 Gospel of Thomas:

What Is the Context of Colossians 2?

“If 2:6–15 is the heart of Colossians, this verse (along with vv. 9–10) is the heart of 2:6–15. It serves as the hinge between the first major section of the letter (1:3–2:5) and the second (2:6–4:6). The first clause succinctly restates the key theological argument of the letter to this point: Jesus Christ is Lord, and we have entered into his Lordship. The second clause then summarizes the specific commands and warnings that follow: we are to continue to live in him, to work out just what it means in both our thinking and our acting to live under the Lordship of Christ.”
