Colossians 2:5
3 in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
4 I say this so that no one will deceive you by smooth rhetoric.
For although I am absent from you in body, I am present with you in spirit, and I delight to see your orderly condition and firm faith in Christ.
6 Therefore, just as you have received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to walk in Him,
7 rooted and built up in Him, established in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.
