Equip Bible Study - Colossians - The supremacy of Christ (Talk the Word)

The book of Colossians was written by Paul and Timothy to Christians in Colossae and was intended to be shared with their neighbouring church in Laodicea. Paul makes clear his concern and efforts for these two churches, even though he does not know them personally. These churches were founded by Epaphras, who was in prison with Paul. It appears that Epaphras has been speaking to Paul about these churches, and in the discussion it becomes clear that they are struggling with some of the same issues Paul has encountered elsewhere. Of particular concern to Paul are those false teachers who suggest that there is some hidden knowledge or “mystery” that must be discovered in addition to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
