Walk This Way

From a letter written by the apostle Paul,
with Timotheus (Timothy), 
to believers in Colosse:

As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: in whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ: buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; and having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.-Colossians 2:6-15***In the divinely inspired Scriptures of the Holy Bible, prophets and psalmists, including King David, are described sacrificing vocal thanksgiving to the Lord God and magnifying the Lord God with thanksgiving. Psalmists revealed that songs should be sung to the Lord God with thanksgiving, and the presence of the Lord God should be entered into with thanksgiving. Over 900 years after 70-year-old David died and was buried in the City of David, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah, the birth tribe of David and his descendants, to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin. The apostle Paul (Saul) was an Israelite from the tribe of Benjamin. Years after Jesus was betrayed, arrested, crucified, buried in a tomb, resurrected, and returned to heaven, Paul sent a message to those in Colosse who believed Jesus to be the Christ. Paul taught of Jesus, thanksgiving and faith.-Genesis, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:23, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings 1:1-2:12, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 8:1-40, 9:35-29:30, Nehemiah 12:1-47, Psalm 26, Psalm 69, Psalm 95, Psalm 100, Psalm 147, Jonah 1:1-2:10, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26, 6:1-8:4, 9:1-31, 11:19-28:31, Colossians
