The Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Colossians was written by Paul, while he was a prisoner in Rome, to the Christians at Colossae in Asia Minor. Paul writes to encourage them with real truth-that through Christ they have the everlasting love of God.

Colossians 4

4:13 For I bear him record, that he hath a great zeal for you, and them that are in Laodicea and them in Hierapolis.
