Colossians 2:1, 3-5

I want you to know how much I have agonized for you and for the church at Laodicea, and for many other believers who have never met me personally.

In him lie hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. I am telling you this so no one will deceive you with well-crafted arguments. For though I am far away from you, my heart is with you. And I rejoice that you are living as you should and that your faith in Christ is strong.
