Colossians 1:3-6

3

We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,

4

since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of your love for all the saints;

5

because of the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, of which you heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel,

6

which has come to you, as it has also in all the world, and is bringing forth fruit, as it is also among you since the day you heard and knew the grace of God in truth;
