Colossians 1:6-8

New Catholic Bible

⁶ that has come down to you.

Just as it is bearing fruit and growing throughout the entire world, so it has been bearing fruit among you, ever since the day when you heard it and came to understand the grace of God in truth. ⁷ You learned this from Epaphras,^[a] our beloved fellow servant and a faithful minister of Christ on your behalf. ⁸ He was also the one who made known to us your love in the Spirit.
