Colossians is about the trajectory of the Life that we’ve received as members of the body of Christ. This life is now operating in us to “head us up” in Christ. What that means is that Christ becomes everything to us just as He is already everything to God.
Colossians is really a book that reveals the centrality of Christ in God’s heart and in His purpose and program. In Colossians, Christ becomes everything to us. That’s the goal of a Christian life. It’s to be headed up in Christ so that Christ is everything. I believe that in Colossians we’ll see Christ as everything. Somebody said that the whole universe will be shocked one day when God pulls back the veil and we see how central Christ is to God and how God is entirely focused on Christ. He’s not dealing with us individually apart from Christ. He deals with us in Christ as members of Christ, with Christ as the center!
