Colossians

Colossians 1:22–23

22But now He has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy, unblemished, and blameless in His presence — 23if indeed you continue in your faith, established and firm, not moved from the hope of the gospel you heard, which has been proclaimed to every creaturee under heaven, and of which I, Paul, have become a servant.
