Memorize Monday: Colossians 1:15-20

Memorize Colossians 1:15-20

This passage, a hymn of sorts, answers the critical question: who is Christ?  By memorizing this hymn-poem you will have a ready answer for others, but more critically for yourself.

Use this passage as a means of meditating on Christ.  Once you’ve memorized it, bring it back to mind regularly so that you can reflect on the rich and profound things the writer of the hymn is saying about who Christ is.

For some scholarly reflection on the passage see F.F. Bruce’s article “The Christ Hymn.”
