Paul writes to the church at Colossae from prison to correct false teaching and encourage the church to trust in Christ fully as Lord. In this first chapter he presents Jesus as supreme and preeminent over all of Creation. He is the firstborn, meaning he is the one inherits all things from the Father and that He comes first before anyone else and before anything else. This same powerful and authoritative Jesus is also the head of the church. Though we were alienated from God and hostile to him, he has reconciled us unto God through his gospel. Finally, Paul speaks about the goal of his ministry, saying that he aims to present everyone mature in Christ. With such a goal in mind, Paul is willing to suffer as a servant of the church.
