Jude 1:1-4 The Faith Once Delivered To The Saints

Colossians 2:1-5 Defeat Plausible Arguments
After arguing for the superiority of Jesus Christ in chapter one, Paul now begins his argument for the necessity of a correct, biblical view of God the Father, and Jesus the Son. This is how we recognize counterfeits, instead of succumbing to them.
