The Apostle Paul (also known as Sha'ul or Saul) never personally visited with the Colossians but he knew some of the members of the congregation. Paul wrote this concise and seemingly simple letter to encourage them and to correct false teachings that had crept in. These heresies included many elements of Gnosticism and Jewish mysticism which hold some common ideas. Many Gnostic teachings were spreading then and continue to spread today among some congregations. This polluting of the Good News of Yeshua was a continuous challenge to Paul and he fought these falsehoods with the truth.
