Book of Colossians

Colossians – Chapter 4

Colossians 4:1 says, “Masters, give unto [your] servants that which is just and equal; knowing that ye also have a Master in heaven.” You want to remember to never ask anyone to do anything that you are not willing to accomplish yourself, and as well, remember a laborer is worthy of their hire. Father God is our Master in all things and He is fair and just in dealing with all of His children and our LORD expects people to follow the examples as taught by Christ Jesus, treating each other as you would have our Lord treat you.

Colossians 4:2 says, “Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving;” Relentlessly pray to our Father God in the Precious Name of Jesus and thank our LORD for answering your prayers. You thank Father also when what you are asking for you may not receive, knowing and understanding that Father will always see to it that you have what is needed when you are faithful, studying His Word, and trusting and having faith that Father always hears you and answers according to His good will, what is best for you. Prayer is speaking to Father God and you can talk with Father whenever you want to since He loves hearing from His children. Father knows everything that is going on within your life, however He wants to hear it from you. Share your love, joy, sorrows, laughter with He who created all for His good pleasure.

Colossians 4:3 says, “Withal praying also for us, that God would open unto us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds:” Paul was imprisoned for teaching the “mystery of Christ” which is the “truth of Father’s Word.” He taught, just as the very elect of this generation, what happened in the Spiritual or First Earth Age, why we were born from above, that the tares are the children of satan, the kenites; he taught what “thus saith our LORD.” The very elect of this generation, sharing truth, planting seeds wherever they may be heard would likewise be placed in prison if it were possible. The kenites and the Biblically illiterate do not want Father’s children understanding truth; they want them believing lies so they are ripe for the deception of satan when he is cast to this earth as the first/false christ.

Colossians 4:4 says, “That I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak.” No one can stop Father’s Word from being taught just as Paul was inspired to write this very Letter we are studying and other Books of the Bible from prison. Father will see to it through His election that His Word will be evidenced from the hearts and minds of His chosen children to all with ears to hear and eyes to see.

Colossians 4:5 says, “Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time.” For all of those you come into contact with, as well as those you may never meet face to face who are without the truth of our Living Word who is Christ Jesus, plant seeds of truth by any means necessary since this is sharing the wisdom of Father God. Our LORD has made it possible as we now live to share His Truths through many means such as television and via the computer. “Redeeming the time” means to spread the true gospel when the time is right which is now. It is up to each and everyone one of Father’s children to receive truth while it may be found and that time is now. When you come across one who is ready to receive a truth which you determine through spiritual discernment, plant the seeds and pray they receive the increase. If you come across those who defy the truth of Father’s Word, move on since you do not want to cast your pearls before swine [Matthew – Chapter 7].

Colossians 4:6 says, “Let your speech [be] alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.” “Grace” means “good will, loving kindness.” “With salt” means “wisdom provided with power, vigor to preserve Father’s Word, taught with flavor {knowledge} so that it is uplifting to the hearer.” To keep Christ Jesus on the Throne, Father’s Word should be taught with boldness, confidence and in this way satan is brought down to the nothingness that he is while Christ Jesus, our Living Word is lifted up. Verse yourself in Father Truths through faithful study and prayer so when one seeks answers you can provide them according to the Word of Almighty God, from the Holy Bible {study Books such as the Strong’s Concordance}, which rejuvenates life and extends to His children understanding through our Father’s power and might which leads to everlasting life.

Colossians 4:7 says, “All my state shall Tychicus declare unto you, [who is] a beloved brother, and a faithful minister and fellowservant in the Lord:” “Tychicus” means “fateful {significant/crucial}.” Truth will be taught by the faithful boldly and a little salty because it is crucial for all to come to understanding of Father’s Word since there is great deception [satan] soon to be cast into this world. Truth brings you to the mindset as the very elect and because of this knowledge, Father God can bring you from that state of free will wherein you have to ask Him to intercede within your life, to a state of being under the will of Father God as you are grafted into His Perfect Plan just as the very elect are when you come to understanding and accept the “True Word.”

Colossians 4:8 says, “Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that he might know your estate, and comfort your hearts;” When you accept seeds of truth planted by the very elect it brings you “Peace and Rest” through “Christ Jesus our Living Word.” Comfort comes from the Holy Spirit and by the blessings of “Father God Almighty” when you seek, ask and knock for that increase of understanding only our LORD can give.

Colossians 4:9 says, “With Onesimus, a faithful and beloved brother, who is [one] of you. They shall make known unto you all things which [are done] here.” “Onesimus” means “profitable or useful.” If you want to know the plan of Almighty God and understand the love He has for all of His children, read and study the greatest love story ever told with understanding, which is the “Holy Bible.”

Colossians 4:10 says, “Aristarchus my fellowprisoner saluteth you, and Marcus, sister's son to Barnabas, (touching whom ye received commandments: if he come unto you, receive him;)” “Aristarchus” means “the best ruler. “Marcus {writer of the Book of Mark}” means “a defense.” “Barnabas” means “son of rest.” Christ Jesus is our only Ruler, for He is Melchizedek” which means “King {Melchi} of righteousness {zedek, the very elect} [Psalms – Chapter 110].” When you are under the veil of Father God Almighty, Christ Jesus, our Living Word is your “Defense” against the events that shall lead up to the end of this Flesh or Second Earth Age and He is your “Rest” because understanding truth eliminates any doubts [darkness] in the promises of “Father God Almighty who is always Faithful and True.”

Colossians 4:11 says, “And Jesus, which is called Justus, who are of the circumcision. These only [are my] fellowworkers unto the kingdom of God, which have been a comfort unto me.” “Justus” means “just.” When you have walked in darkness, sitting in a church most of your life having learned no good thing of the “Plan of Almighty God”, when finally a seed is planted boldly flavored with salt that gets your attention from one of the very elect, listen, seek Father God in the Name of Christ Jesus as Justus did, and remove yourself from the doctrines, traditions and pulpit gurus that shall lead you straight into the arms of the first/false christ who is satan here to rapture you away. Romans 2:28 & 29 says, “For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither [is that] circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:” “But he [is] a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision [is that] of the heart, in the spirit, [and] not in the letter; whose praise [is] not of men, but of God.” Hebrews 4:11 says, “Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.” You want to “work for that rest {labour}” by studying Father’s Truths, so your mind is never filled with “doubt {unbelief} of the existence of Father, who created all things of Heaven and earth.” Babble and confusion, which is of satan, is dismissed when you are Biblically literate. If you do not experience that circumcision of your heart and mind with Biblical knowledge, you will become as the children in the wilderness that became prey to unbelief, resulting in their being a day late.

Colossians 4:12 says, “Epaphras, who is [one] of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.” “Epaphras” means “lovely.” Father God created mankind for His pleasure and to please Father you should be working faithfully as you study to show yourself approved, seeking that understanding only our LORD can give so you can be under the “will of Father God Almighty only.” Christ Jesus taught us how to commune with Father in Matthew – Chapter 6, Verse 10 saying, “Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as [it is] in heaven.” Not your will or the pulpit gurus will, the will of Father God only and to know what is required it is crucial that you study and show yourself “lovely” as is taught in Philippians – Chapter 4 {8 & 9}. You become as a just one when you follow and believe the teachings of Christ Jesus which puts you under the will of Father God Almighty.

Colossians 4:13 says, “For I bear him record, that he hath a great zeal for you, and them [that are] in Laodicea, and them in Hierapolis.” “Laodicea” means “justice of the people” and “Hierapolis” means “holy city.” Churches likened onto “Laodicea” do not even realize how wretched they are as they teach salvation over and over, never touching our Father’s Truths, afraid of controversy from those lacking understanding, starving our Lord’s sheep, but popular to the Biblically illiterate because of riches according to earthly standards. As with the other churches, Father God is telling those likened unto this church to re-think their choice to remain Biblically illiterate, believing in the rapture and not knowing who the kenites are and what happens at the Sixth Trump. Spiritually, they are blind and living in poverty of the worse kind. Our Father in His great love for His children, tells this church He wants their true love that is as “gold tried in the fire”, wherein all of its impurities are burnt away [false doctrines and teachings], becoming clean and pure [Revelation 3:14 – 19], experiencing circumcision spiritually. As to the “holy city”, Ezekiel 16:8 & 9 says, “Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time [was] the time of love; and I spread my skirt over thee, and covered thy nakedness: yea, I sware unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord GOD, and thou becamest mine.” “Then washed I thee with water; yea, I throughly washed away thy blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oil.” Father is telling us how much He loves Mount Zion, so much so our LORD took her to be His wife, making an eternal covenant wherein we understand Father God married that hill, being the same place where our Lord Jesus Christ was crucified. It is the same as when Christ told us to wait on Him, our Bridegroom, as a chaste virgin for the marriage of the Lamb. This is an analogy for your understanding so you know that Father loves this place and He is there for the Eternity once it is cleansed from the abomination that has taken place. Ezekiel 48:3 says, “[It was] round about eighteen thousand [measures]: and the name of the city from [that] day [shall be], The LORD [is] there.” This is the name of “new Jerusalem”, “The LORD is there” because this is His home, with our Lord Jesus Christ and all of His children for all of Eternity.

Colossians 4:14 says, “Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas, greet you.” “Luke” means “light-giving.” “Demas” means “governor of the people.” Father God blesses His children with many talents, spiritually and psychically. The gifts you have to sustain the flesh, when you are a student of Father’s Truths, can and should be used to spread the gospel to all with eyes to see and ears to hear. Mankind needs to understand that while we yet live in the flesh, it is the Word of Father God Almighty that is to lead your spiritual self so that you are with Him throughout eternity. It takes many parts to make up the many-membered Body of Christ Jesus which is the Temple of Father God. Let your light so shine according to the teachings of Christ Jesus that you and all those you come into contact with, see the good of our LORD emanating from you and they themselves will seek to be under the power of Father God wherein their spiritual selves are governed by our Living Word who is Christ Jesus.

Colossians 4:15 says, “Salute the brethren which are in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church which is in his house.” “Nymphas” means “bridegroom.” There should not be all the many denominations as exist throughout this whole earth as we now live. There should be one church of Christ Jesus wherein all christians are learning the truth of Father’s Word together. The purpose is to not be a part of the deception of darkness who is satan when he is cast to this earth to perpetrate the greatest deception ever to be known to mankind as the first/false christ. Mankind, loving our Father God should be waiting for the return of our True Christ who now sits at the right hand of His Father, away from His bride, the church, who is mankind, His family, for a short time. When our Lord returns at the Seventh Trump, He expects to find His intended bride {mankind} working {planting seeds of truth} in the field {the world}, faithfully waiting for Him while in the service of our Father God Almighty.

Colossians 4:16 says, “And when this epistle is read among you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans; and that ye likewise read the [epistle] from Laodicea.” Until Christ Jesus returns, all of mankind should be studying the letters our Father inspired through His very elect and has given to all, generation to generation, as our “Holy Bible.” Those of darkness, satan and his entourage, have done and continue to do all within their pitiful power to keep Father’s Word from being spread throughout the nations. It is the very elect who shall never turn their backs on Father God and guided by His hand and under His will, a veil of protection all around, will continue, as Paul and all those of the Holy Scriptures, to be light-givers to those who walk in darkness and deception.

Colossians 4:17 says, “And say to Archippus, Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfil it.” “Archippus” means “master of the horse {power}.” The very elect, confident always in our Father God, will bring forth the True Word boldly, with saltiness when necessary, as the power of the Holy Spirit works through them, always prayerful through Christ Jesus. It is the will of Father God, as we now live, this world in a terrible state, for seeds of truth to be planted whenever and wherever they will be heard since it is our LORD only who can lift us up and let us stand on the Rock of our Foundation who is Christ Jesus. Time is growing short as we see the events taking place around us as is taught in Matthew – Chapter 24, Mark – Chapter 13 and Luke – Chapter 21. Those labor pains are coming closer together which will bring in the birth of a New Age, which is the Eternal or Third Earth Age.

Colossians 4:18 says, “The salutation by the hand of me Paul. Remember my bonds. Grace [be] with you. Amen.” Pray for one another, stay faithful in our LORD God Almighty, studying as Christ Jesus taught us to, seeking the blessing of the Holy Spirit. Never forget the greatest love of all, Almighty God who took the flesh through His Beloved Son Christ Jesus, sacrificing His Perfect Self on that cross for all of mankind that we may receive the healing when coming before His Throne, the crucifixion of Christ Jesus having rent that veil from top to bottom. “Father God is our All in All and That’s That!”
