Reasons to Suffer (Colossians 1:25–2:4)
It is obvious to all that life is filled with pain and suffering. The effects of the fall and the natural energy we must expend to minister in the church take their toll. But how is it that someone like Paul could rejoice in his sufferings? That almost seems paradoxical. Colossians 1:24–2:5 explains that, if we are to rejoice in our suffering, we must remember two reasons for suffering. Our suffering is for the church and for Christ.
