+Book 51 Colossians
+001:001 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God,
+        and Timothy our brother,
+001:002 to the saints and faithful brothers{The word for "brothers"
+        here and where context allows may also be correctly
+        translated "brothers and sisters" or "siblings."} in Christ
+        at Colossae:  Grace to you and peace from God our Father,
+        and the Lord Jesus Christ.
+001:003 We give thanks to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
+        praying always for you,
+001:004 having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love
+        which you have toward all the saints,
+001:005 because of the hope which is laid up for you in the heavens,
+        of which you heard before in the word of the truth of
+        the Good News,
+001:006 which has come to you; even as it is in all the world
+        and is bearing fruit and growing, as it does in you also,
+        since the day you heard and knew the grace of God in truth;
+001:007 even as you learned of Epaphras our beloved fellow servant,
+        who is a faithful servant of Christ on our behalf,
+001:008 who also declared to us your love in the Spirit.
+001:009 For this cause, we also, since the day we heard this,
+        don't cease praying and making requests for you, that you
+        may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual
+        wisdom and understanding,
+001:010 that you may walk worthily of the Lord, to please him in
+        all respects, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing
+        in the knowledge of God;
+001:011 strengthened with all power, according to the might of his glory,
+        for all endurance and perseverance with joy;
+001:012 giving thanks to the Father, who made us fit to be partakers
+        of the inheritance of the saints in light;
+001:013 who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated
+        us into the Kingdom of the Son of his love;
+001:014 in whom we have our redemption,{TR adds "through his blood,"}
+        the forgiveness of our sins;
+001:015 who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn
+        of all creation.
+001:016 For by him all things were created, in the heavens
+        and on the earth, things visible and things invisible,
+        whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers;
+        all things have been created through him, and for him.
+001:017 He is before all things, and in him all things are held together.
+001:018 He is the head of the body, the assembly, who is the beginning,
+        the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might
+        have the preeminence.
+001:019 For all the fullness was pleased to dwell in him;
+001:020 and through him to reconcile all things to himself, by him,
+        whether things on the earth, or things in the heavens,
+        having made peace through the blood of his cross.
+001:021 You, being in past times alienated and enemies in your mind
+        in your evil works,
+001:022 yet now he has reconciled in the body of his flesh through death,
+        to present you holy and without blemish and blameless before him,
+001:023 if it is so that you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast,
+        and not moved away from the hope of the Good News which you heard,
+        which is being proclaimed in all creation under heaven;
+        of which I, Paul, was made a servant.
+001:024 Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and fill up
+        on my part that which is lacking of the afflictions of Christ
+        in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the assembly;
+001:025 of which I was made a servant, according to the stewardship of God
+        which was given me toward you, to fulfill the word of God,
+001:026 the mystery which has been hidden for ages and generations.
+        But now it has been revealed to his saints,
+001:027 to whom God was pleased to make known what are the riches
+        of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is
+        Christ in you, the hope of glory;
+001:028 whom we proclaim, admonishing every man and teaching every
+        man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect
+        in Christ Jesus;
+001:029 for which I also labor, striving according to his working,
+        which works in me mightily.
+002:001 For I desire to have you know how greatly I struggle for you,
+        and for those at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen
+        my face in the flesh;
+002:002 that their hearts may be comforted, they being knit together
+        in love, and gaining all riches of the full assurance
+        of understanding, that they may know the mystery of God,
+        both of the Father and of Christ,
+002:003 in whom are all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge hidden.
+002:004 Now this I say that no one may delude you with persuasiveness
+        of speech.
+002:005 For though I am absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit,
+        rejoicing and seeing your order, and the steadfastness of your
+        faith in Christ.
+002:006 As therefore you received Christ Jesus, the Lord, walk in him,
+002:007 rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith,
+        even as you were taught, abounding in it in thanksgiving.
+002:008 Be careful that you don't let anyone rob you through his
+        philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men,
+        after the elements of the world, and not after Christ.
+002:009 For in him all the fullness of the Godhead dwells bodily,
+002:010 and in him you are made full, who is the head of all
+        principality and power;
+002:011 in whom you were also circumcised with a circumcision not
+        made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the sins
+        of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ;
+002:012 having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were
+        also raised with him through faith in the working of God,
+        who raised him from the dead.
+002:013 You were dead through your trespasses and the uncircumcision
+        of your flesh.  He made you alive together with him,
+        having forgiven us all our trespasses,
+002:014 wiping out the handwriting in ordinances which was against us;
+        and he has taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross;
+002:015 having stripped the principalities and the powers, he made
+        a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
+002:016 Let no man therefore judge you in eating, or in drinking,
+        or with respect to a feast day or a new moon or a Sabbath day,
+002:017 which are a shadow of the things to come; but the body is Christ's.
+002:018 Let no one rob you of your prize by a voluntary humility and
+        worshipping of the angels, dwelling in the things which he has
+        not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
+002:019 and not holding firmly to the Head, from whom all the body,
+        being supplied and knit together through the joints and ligaments,
+        grows with God's growth.
+002:020 If you died with Christ from the elements of the world, why, as though
+        living in the world, do you subject yourselves to ordinances,
+002:021 "Don't handle, nor taste, nor touch"
+002:022 (all of which perish with use), according to the precepts
+        and doctrines of men?
+002:023 Which things indeed appear like wisdom in self-imposed worship,
+        and humility, and severity to the body; but aren't of any value
+        against the indulgence of the flesh.
+003:001 If then you were raised together with Christ, seek the things
+        that are above, where Christ is, seated on the right hand of God.
+003:002 Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things
+        that are on the earth.
+003:003 For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
+003:004 When Christ, our life, is revealed, then you will also be
+        revealed with him in glory.
+003:005 Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth:
+        sexual immorality, uncleanness, depraved passion, evil desire,
+        and covetousness, which is idolatry;
+003:006 for which things' sake the wrath of God comes on the
+        children of disobedience.
+003:007 You also once walked in those, when you lived in them;
+003:008 but now you also put them all away:  anger, wrath, malice, slander,
+        and shameful speaking out of your mouth.
+003:009 Don't lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old
+        man with his doings,
+003:010 and have put on the new man, who is being renewed in knowledge
+        after the image of his Creator,
+003:011 where there can't be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision,
+        barbarian, Scythian, bondservant, freeman; but Christ is all,
+        and in all.
+003:012 Put on therefore, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart
+        of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance;
+003:013 bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, if any man
+        has a complaint against any; even as Christ forgave you,
+        so you also do.
+003:014 Above all these things, walk in love, which is the
+        bond of perfection.
+003:015 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you
+        were called in one body; and be thankful.
+003:016 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching
+        and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs,
+        singing with grace in your heart to the Lord.
+003:017 Whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of
+        the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father, through him.
+003:018 Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting
+        in the Lord.
+003:019 Husbands, love your wives, and don't be bitter against them.
+003:020 Children, obey your parents in all things, for this
+        pleases the Lord.
+003:021 Fathers, don't provoke your children, so that they
+        won't be discouraged.
+003:022 Servants, obey in all things those who are your masters according
+        to the flesh, not just when they are looking, as men pleasers,
+        but in singleness of heart, fearing God.
+003:023 And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord,
+        and not for men,
+003:024 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward
+        of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.
+003:025 But he who does wrong will receive again for the wrong that
+        he has done, and there is no partiality.
+004:001 Masters, give to your servants that which is just and equal,
+        knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.
+004:002 Continue steadfastly in prayer, watching therein with thanksgiving;
+004:003 praying together for us also, that God may open to us a door
+        for the word, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am
+        also in bonds;
+004:004 that I may reveal it as I ought to speak.
+004:005 Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time.
+004:006 Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt,
+        that you may know how you ought to answer each one.
+004:007 All my affairs will be made known to you by Tychicus,
+        the beloved brother, faithful servant, and fellow bondservant
+        in the Lord.
+004:008 I am sending him to you for this very purpose, that he may know
+        your circumstances and comfort your hearts,
+004:009 together with Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother,
+        who is one of you.  They will make known to you everything
+        that is going on here.
+004:010 Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner greets you, and Mark, the cousin
+        of Barnabas (concerning whom you received commandments,
+        "if he comes to you, receive him"),
+004:011 and Jesus who is called Justus, who are of the circumcision.
+        These are my only fellow workers for the Kingdom of God,
+        men who have been a comfort to me.
+004:012 Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, salutes you,
+        always striving for you in his prayers, that you may stand
+        perfect and complete in all the will of God.
+004:013 For I testify about him, that he has great zeal for you,
+        and for those in Laodicea, and for those in Hierapolis.
+004:014 Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas greet you.
+004:015 Greet the brothers who are in Laodicea, and Nymphas,
+        and the assembly that is in his house.
+004:016 When this letter has been read among you, cause it to be read
+        also in the assembly of the Laodiceans; and that you also read
+        the letter from Laodicea.
+004:017 Tell Archippus, "Take heed to the ministry which you have
+        received in the Lord, that you fulfill it."
+004:018 The salutation of me, Paul, with my own hand:  remember my bonds.
+        Grace be with you.  Amen.

+
+Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we usually do not
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+We are now trying to release all our eBooks one year in advance
+of the official release dates, leaving time for better editing.
+Please be encouraged to tell us about any error or corrections,
+even years after the official publication date.
+
+Please note neither this listing nor its contents are final til
+midnight of the last day of the month of any such announcement.
+The official release date of all Project Gutenberg eBooks is at
+Midnight, Central Time, of the last day of the stated month.  A
+preliminary version may often be posted for suggestion, comment
+and editing by those who wish to do so.
+
+Most people start at our Web sites at:
+https://gutenberg.org or
+http://promo.net/pg
+
+These Web sites include award-winning information about Project
+Gutenberg, including how to donate, how to help produce our new
+eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter (free!).
+
+
+Those of you who want to download any eBook before announcement
+can get to them as follows, and just download by date.  This is
+also a good way to get them instantly upon announcement, as the
+indexes our cataloguers produce obviously take a while after an
+announcement goes out in the Project Gutenberg Newsletter.

+
+We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work.  The
+time it takes us, a rather conservative estimate, is fifty hours
+to get any eBook selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright
+searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc.   Our
+projected audience is one hundred million readers.  If the value
+per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2
+million dollars per hour in 2002 as we release over 100 new text
+files per month:  1240 more eBooks in 2001 for a total of 4000+
+We are already on our way to trying for 2000 more eBooks in 2002
+If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population then the total
+will reach over half a trillion eBooks given away by year's end.
+
+The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away 1 Trillion eBooks!
+This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers,
+which is only about 4% of the present number of computer users.
