Living God’s Way: The full assurance of understanding

Can you imagine the struggle Paul had when he considered the people in Colossae, Laodicea and other places, and his desire for them to have an understanding of the mystery of Christ? Can you imagine the desire he had for all those who would read his letter to the Colossians to have a full assurance of understanding when it came to the “true knowledge of God’s mystery” (Colossians 2:1-3)?
The struggle Paul had may have been the physical conflict he had with those who were presenting a doctrine contrary to the mystery revealed to him. It might have been the spiritual conflict he had with the false teachers who were influencing the Colossians
