Colossians: The Gospel, the Church, and the New Humanity in Christ is a Bible study guide that offers serious treatment of Paul's letter for believers who seek a wider understanding of how the gospel applies not only to them personally, but also to the world around them. This study explores Paul as a writer, theologian, and pastor who employs his literary skills, theological discourse, and pastoral exhortation to ensure that Jesus Christ remains at the center of the young Christian community at Colossae. He reinterprets the Old Testament in light of the revelation of God given in his beloved Son, showing how Jesus fulfils both the Scripture and God's plan for his creation. In the end, Paul presents to the Colossian Church a sweeping worldview and a lifestyle that is firmly grounded in the person and work of Jesus Christ and aimed at reflecting his image to the rest of the world.
