Colossians 1:24-29
Lexham English Bible
Paul’s Suffering and Stewardship
24 Now I rejoice in my sufferings on behalf of you, and I fill up in my flesh what is lacking of the afflictions of Christ, on behalf of his body which is the church, 25 of which I became a minister, according to God’s stewardship which was given to me for you, to complete the word of God, 26 the mystery which has been hidden from the ages and from the generations, but has now been revealed to his saints, 27 to whom God wanted to make known what is the glorious wealth of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory, 28 whom we proclaim, by[a] admonishing every person[b] and teaching every person[c] with all wisdom, in order that we may present every person[d] mature in Christ, 29 for which purpose also I labor, striving according to his working which is at work powerfully in me.
