Colossians 1:26-28

Contemporary English Version

²⁶ For ages and ages this message was kept secret from everyone, but now it has been explained to God's people. ²⁷ God did this because he wanted you Gentiles to understand his wonderful and glorious mystery. And the mystery is that Christ lives in you, and he is your hope of sharing in God's glory.

²⁸ We announce the message about Christ, and we use all our wisdom to warn and teach everyone, so all of Christ's followers will grow and become mature.
