Life-Study of Colossians: Life-Study of the Bible (Unabridged‪)‬

In the book of Colossians, Christ is unveiled to a fuller extent than in any other book in the Bible. Christ is unveiled as the all-inclusive one, having the first place in all things as the mystery and embodiment of God, as the head and constituent of the church, as the allotted portion, life, constituent, and hope of the saints, and as the body of all positive things. In addition to presenting such a Christ as the one person in God's economy, Colossians also presents the cross of Christ as the one way in God's government. By the cross, God puts to death all the substitutes for Christ, including culture, philosophy, and religion, so that Christ can be everything to the believers and in the church as the new man.
