“For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him. And he is before all things, and by him all things consist” (Colossians 1:16-17).
The people of Colosse were listening to false teaching. The false teaching was labeled the “Colossian heresy.” It was diverse in nature, but, blatantly false. Paul counteracted by preaching the supremacy of the true God. He wanted the people to see how futile it was to embrace these heretical “beliefs.” God created all things. Who can compare? Who or what could dare challenge that fact?
