Colossians 1:23-24

23if indeed you continue in 1the faith firmly 2established and steadfast, and not shifting from the 3hope of the gospel that you have heard, which was proclaimed 4in all creation under heaven, 5and of which I, Paul, 6was made a 78minister.

249Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh 10I am supplementing what is lacking 11in Christ’s afflictions in behalf of 12His body, which is the church.
