Colossians 2:2-4 NIV

My purpose is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. I tell you this so that no one may deceive you by fine-sounding arguments.

 

In this letter, the Apostle Paul makes a clear and unwavering statement as to his primary intention concerning heresies, which had begun to infiltrate the church of Believers in Christ at Collosse.

 

As we read more of this letter, we as Believers today must recognize by the discernment given us by Holy Spirit, that social principles and opinions which are acceptable by the world and it's view of morality, are in opposition to the RIGHTEOUS teaching of God's WORD and of HIS TRUTH! There are many even today, who view society's character models as ones that are to be taught and even personified among and even intertwined with Biblical teachings of RIGHTEOUSNESS.

 

This practice was then, and is known today as gnosticism, and must never be tolerated, taught or practiced anywhere or at anytime by Believers in Christ. Where opinion and philosophies are being taught, published in books and even preached from the bullypit--excuse me, I mean, pulpit, there will be other erroneous and false doctrines being taught and believed, all of which are lies from the enemy, who attempts to confuse believers and

destroy the Gospel which is,
TRUTH, of Christ and HIM crucified,
VICTORIOUS over death, hell and the grave,
RESURRECTED by Holy Spirit,
Glorifed by HIS Immortality,
and NOW Seated at the RIGHT-eous Hand of our
heavenly Father, Jehovah God!!!

 

We as Believers in Christ, must find TRUTH by devouring God's WORD, and guard our thoughts against these heresies even today, now more than ever before!!!

 

O'Lord, teach me more of YOUR Righteousness,
lead me further, in my daily journey of LIFE!
Lift me up to that higher ground,
where I may see more of YOUR Glory!!
Impart more of YOUR Wisdom and Knowledge,
that my Understanding will be increased,
and YOUR Kingdom will flourish!!!
Amen and AMEN!!!
