Colossians: A New Testament Commentary

In his New Testament Commentary, Bob Yandian teaches verse-by-verse from the book of Colossians dealing with human philosophy and false religion and God's approach to eliminating them from the church. The book of Colossians was written during Paul's first imprisonment in Rome. It was during the same imprisonment that Paul wrote the epistles of Ephesians, Philippians, and Philemon. Paul wrote to the saints ta Colosse because the false religion of Gnosticism had entered the church. He also wanted to firmly establish his support of Epaphras as pastor and head of the local church.
