”One Another” comes from the Greek word allelon, which means one another, but also each other, mutually and reciprocally. It occurs 100 times in the New Testament, with 59 of those commands teaching us how (and how not) to relate to one another.
In week 2 of our One Another Series, we travel to Colossae. In his writing to the Colossians, Paul utilizes four “One Another” statements to help the community deal with false teachers tearing down Christ's divinity. He offers statements: do not lie, bear with, forgive, teach, and admonish one another. It is clear that Paul believes that a healthy biblical community is the best way to combat false teaching.
