Paul's Letter to the Colossians (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

This is a layman's understanding of what God was communicating through Paul to the church at Colossae, and by extension to the church at large including that of our time. The approach taken is to attempt to let the Word of God speak for itself, letting scripture interpret scripture. That means being intentional about relying upon the Spirit of God to enlighten the understanding, as opposed to dependence upon men. It means challenging presuppositions and previous indoctrination, including more mainstream (whatever that may mean) interpretations. Rather than looking to Commentaries by other men to find out what a passage means, this author looks to other passages of scripture to provide the necessary commentary to explain a passage. This explains the virtual absence of references to other works of men, and the extensive use of scripture quotations. Of course, the reader needs to take the same approach, with dependence upon the Holy Spirit in critically evaluating this author's interpretations and understandings - let God speak!
