Kol. 1:27-28

Joille Jumala tahtoi tehdä tiettäväksi, kuinka suuri pakanain keskuudessa on tämän salaisuuden kirkkaus: Kristus teissä, kirkkauden toivo.
28 Ja häntä me julistamme, neuvoen jokaista ihmistä ja opettaen jokaista ihmistä kaikella viisaudella, asettaaksemme esiin jokaisen ihmisen täydellisenä Kristuksessa.

Kol 1:27-28 Heille Jumala tahtoi antaa tiedoksi,

miten valtava on pakanakansojen

keskuudessa tämän salaisuuden kirkkaus:

Kristus teissä, kirkkauden toivo. Room. 9:23; 2. Kor. 2:14

28. Häntä me julistamme neuvoen ja

opettaen jokaista ihmistä kaikella viisaudella,

asettaaksemme esiin jokaisen

ihmisen täydellisenä Kristuksessa. 2. Kor. 11:2; Ef. 4:13, 5:27
Colossians 1:27-28Amplified Bible (AMP)

²⁷ God [in His eternal plan] chose to make known to them how great for the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in and among you, the hope and guarantee of [realizing the] glory. ²⁸ We proclaim Him, warning and instructing everyone in all wisdom [that is, with comprehensive insight into the word and purposes of God], so that we may present every person complete in Christ [mature, fully trained, and perfect in Him—the Anointed].
Colossians 1:27-29The Message (MSG)

^26-29 This mystery has been kept in the dark for a long time, but now it’s out in the open. God wanted everyone, not just Jews, to know this rich and glorious secret inside and out, regardless of their background, regardless of their religious standing. The mystery in a nutshell is just this: Christ is in you, so therefore you can look forward to sharing in God’s glory. It’s that simple. That is the substance of our Message. We preach Christ, warning people not to add to the Message. We teach in a spirit of profound common sense so that we can bring each person to maturity. To be mature is to be basic. Christ! No more, no less. That’s what I’m working so hard at day after day, year after year, doing my best with the energy God so generously gives me.
Colossians 1:27-28Living Bible (TLB)
^26-27 He has kept this secret for centuries and generations past, but now at last it has pleased him to tell it to those who love him and live for him, and the riches and glory of his plan are for you Gentiles, too. And this is the secret: Christ in your hearts is your only hope of glory.

²⁸ So everywhere we go we talk about Christ to all who will listen, warning them and teaching them as well as we know how. We want to be able to present each one to God, perfect because of what Christ has done for each of them.
