Colossians 1:23-27
23if indeed you remain in the faith, established and firm, without shifting from the hope of the gospel that you heard. This gospel has also been preached in all creation under heaven, and I, Paul, have become its servant.
24Now I rejoice in my sufferings for you, and I fill up in my physical body – for the sake of his body, the church – what is lacking in the sufferings of Christ.
25I became a servant of the church according to the stewardship from God – given to me for you – in order to complete the word of God,
26that is, the mystery that has been kept hidden from ages and generations, but has now been revealed to his saints.
27God wanted to make known to them the glorious riches of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
