And that is a helpful way of thinking about the closing verses of Colossians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Paul has spent his letter showing us the pre-eminence of Jesus Christ. He is the image of the invisible God, the creator and sustainer of all things, the head of the church, and the one who reconciles sinners to God through the blood of his cross. He alone is sufficient. Cling to Christ alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But what does it look like when the pre-eminence of Christ shapes the lives of his people?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Colossians 4:7\u201318 gives us a glimpse of the bigger picture. We meet people from different backgrounds: Jews and Gentiles, prisoners and fellow workers, a physician, a slave, and members of several local churches. We see letters being delivered, greetings being exchanged, ministries being encouraged, and churches sharing resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These are not disconnected pieces. They belong together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The churches were not meant to operate as isolated islands, competing with one another for resources or people. They shared the teaching of God&#8217;s Word, supported one another&#8217;s work, and maintained relationships across congregations. The pre-eminence of Christ has implications far beyond our own local church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One detail is particularly challenging. Paul speaks of Epaphras, who was <em>\u201calways struggling on your behalf in his prayers\u201d<\/em> (Colossians 4:12, ESV). His concern was that believers would stand mature and fully assured in all the will of God. And his concern extended beyond Colossae to Laodicea and Hierapolis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In comparison, our prayers for other churches appear shallow and feeble. Am I more concerned about the apparent success of our own congregation than the maturity of believers elsewhere?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When we are gripped by the supremacy of Christ, the bigger picture begins to come into focus. We learn to rejoice when other churches grow, to share what God has entrusted to us, to encourage others in ministry, and to pray for believers beyond our immediate circle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Paul ends by asking the Colossians to remember his chains. Yet his imprisonment has not stopped the work. People are serving, churches are communicating, Epaphras is praying, and the gospel is spreading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The supreme Christ is building his church\u2014even through the chains of his apostle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The puzzle isn&#8217;t a puzzle after all. It is a complete picture in which a worthy King receives all that his magnificence deserves.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The pre-eminance of Christ and the big picture Do you enjoy building jigsaw puzzles?
