Colossians 1:3-8 - Thanksgiving For The Colossian Believers
3 We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, (praying always for you, 4 Hearing of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of 5 your love to all the saints) For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, 6 of which ye heard before in the word of truth, Which is come to you, as also it is in all the world, and bringeth forth fruit, as it hath done likewise among you, from the day ye heard it, and knew the grace of God in truth: 7 As ye likewise learned of Epaphras our beloved fellow-servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ for you: 8 Who also declared to us your love in the spirit.
