Colossians 1:23
English Standard Version
... if indeed you continue in the faith, stable and steadfast, not shifting from the hope of the gospel that you heard, which has been proclaimed in all creation under heaven, and of which I, Paul, became a minister.
The Message (MSG) Col 1 :21 -23
You yourselves
are a case study of what he does. At one time you all had your backs
turned to God, thinking rebellious thoughts of him, giving him trouble
every chance you got. But now, by giving himself completely at the
Cross, actually dying for you, Christ brought you over to God's side and
put your lives together, whole and holy in his presence. You don't walk
away from a gift like that! You stay grounded and steady in that bond
of trust, constantly tuned in to the Message, careful not to be
distracted or diverted. There is no other Message—just this one. Every
creature under heaven gets this same Message. I, Paul, am a messenger of
this Message.
