Dr. Jack Hetzel Shares Spiritual Insights on “Colossians Verse By Verse”

The Epistle to the Colossians, which is one of the 27 books of the New Testament, encourages the Christians in the ancient city of Colossae in Asia Minor to lead godly lives and never turn away from Jesus, whom Apostle Paul proclaimed to be the supreme power over the entire universe. The Epistle emphasizes Jesus’ preeminence, sufficiency in all things, and authority over all evil powers, and Christians’ unity with the Risen Christ.

Dr. Jack Hetzel is so struck with the message of Epistle to the Colossians that he decides to discuss the Epistle verse by verse in his book “Colossians Verse By Verse” (ReadersMagnet; 2021).

Dr. Hetzel discussed his reason for writing “Colossians Verse By Verse,” “The reason for this writing was to hopefully give a fuller understanding of every major subject Apostle Paul mentioned in the Book of Colossians by writing a short chapter on each subject. At times when Paul used a word, I would write a chapter on that particular word.

“Not that I am smarter than the reader, but perhaps placing what knowledge I have of the Bible after sixty-eight years in the ministry, which I consider to be the Word of God, and that the only way to true faith is to believe what is written and to help people see themselves as God sees them.”

Paul’s Epistle to the Colossians contains some of the loftiest language that describes the mystery and majesty of Jesus Christ. Dr. Hetzel’s book will help Christians – especially those who hold the Bible close to their hearts – understand, appreciate, and live out the Apostle’s exhortations to the Colossians, one of the earliest Christians who struggled with heresy.
