Colossians
We can see in the second half of chapter 2
of Colossians that the people to whom Paul was writing had a somewhat
Gnostic and very heretical view of Jesus. They thought that they could
commune with God through spiritual beings who came from Christ, and that
they had to follow a very ascetic and rule-bound lifestyle.
Thankfully, Paul set them straight. We can find our reality in Christ
himself. We'll see in the coming days in reading Colossians just how
much we can rely on Christ, rather than some cheap man-made imitations.
