Bible lessons: faith in God and love

Bible lessons: faith in God and love


Posted on December 17, 2008 Updated on December 17, 2008

Colossians 1:3-4

We always thank God … because we have heard of your faith…. and of the love you have…. (V 3-4)

How encouraging for the Colossians to know they were remembered in Paul’s prayers. He had heard good things about them from Epaphras (v.7) and so, wherever he prayed for them, he gave thanks to God for their faith in Christ and their love for all their fellow believers.

Those words link two important qualities: faith and love.

The New Testament often joins these together; sometimes they were even called scripture’s Siamese twins.

Prayer point

O God my father, teach me the secret of faith and love, the alternate beats of the Christian heart. My faith draws love from you, and love expresses that faith in love to everybody. Thank you, father Amen
