Colossians 1:21-24

Christian Standard Bible

²¹ Once you were alienated and hostile in your minds as expressed in your evil actions. ²² But now he has reconciled you by his physical body through his death,^(A) to present you holy, faultless,^(B) and blameless before him^(C)— ²³ if indeed you remain grounded and steadfast in the faith^(D) and are not shifted away from the hope^(E) of the gospel that you heard. This gospel has been proclaimed in all creation^(F) under heaven,^(G) and I, Paul,^(H) have become a servant of it.

Paul’s Ministry

²⁴ Now I rejoice in my sufferings^(I) for you, and I am completing in my flesh what is lacking in Christ’s afflictions for his body,^(J) that is, the church.
