We are starting a new study this week. We will be walking through the book of Colossians. This past Sunday, October 24, was the first lesson. We discussed where Paul was when he wrote the letter to the church in Colosse. We also discussed some facts about the town of Colosse. Finally, we ended by discussing why Paul always addressed his letters with a wish for the church to have “grace” and “peace”. I’d like to continue this conversation with anyone reading this blog. Why did Paul always wish for “grace” and “peace” in the churches in his letters?
* Was “grace” and “peace” just a nice way to open a letter?
* Does “grace” and “peace” have specific meaning to these churches?
* Or, does Paul have a specific reason to wish “grace” and “peace” upon these churches?
What do you think? I would love to hear your opinions!
