Colossians 1:6-8

6which has come to you, just as 12in all the world also it is constantly bearing 3fruit and 4increasing, even as it has been doing in you also since the day you 5heard of it and 6understood the grace of God in truth; 7just as you learned it from 7Epaphras, our 8beloved fellow bond-servant, who is a faithful servant of Christ on our behalf, 8and he also informed us of your 9love in the Spirit.
