Colossians 1:27-29
27 To whom God desired to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory,
28 whom we preach, admonishing every person and teaching every person in all wisdom so that we may present every person mature in Christ.
29 To this end I also labor hard, contending according to His working that works in me with power.
It’s great to get born again, but we also want to become mature in Christ. We can become mature in Christ by learning from God’s Word what we have in Christ, and then faithfully walking in it, day after day.
The Apostle Paul labored hard in teaching God’s Word, so that all Christians would become mature in Christ. That’s a great example for us to follow!
