Be Complete (Be Series) [Paperback]

Warren W. Wiersbe (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: February 1, 1981

What Do You Need to Add?

You hear about horoscopes, yoga, transcendental meditation, and a host of other old and new philosophies. Do you need these things? Not if you have Jesus Christ and He is preeminent in your life.

If you're in Jesus Christ, you are complete! Too often today we try to mix manmade philosophies and legalistic rules with the Gospel. The Colossians Christians faced a similar dilemma. But Paul tenderly corrected their erring ways. He warned against the temptation to look for spiritual fulfillment from sources other than God.

As he did with the Colossians, the Apostle Paul calls you to BE COMPLETE in Christ!

4.0 out of 5 stars Basic commentary and practical teaching for your Bible study, March 19, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Be Complete (Be Series) (Paperback)

This commentary, part of Wiersbe's "Be" series of Biblical commentaries, examines Paul's letter to the Christians at Colossae. Chaper One contains the background of this book of the Bible. You'll also find a helpful outline in here as well as in his other commentaries.

Wiersbe gives a verse by verse explanation of Colossians in an easy to read format. He also adds helpful anecdotes and applications to many of the verses. Remember, this is a beginning commentary and the more serious student of God's word may want something more challenging.

Please use it as a supplement to your Bible study. Dig the truths of God's word out for yourself and then go to this commentary to see if sheds light on questions you may have.Use this as and aid to your study of Colossians. BE COMPLETE provides good information for personal Bible study and/or teaching in Colossians.
