Discussion Questions: Colossians 2:8

  1. What is the one command of Colossians 2:8-15? 
  2. What, in particular, does Paul command us to beware of?
  3. What is philosophy? Is Paul opposed to philosophy in general? What kind of philosophy is Paul warning us of?
  4. What does it mean to be wise?
  5. Where must we go to find true wisdom? Where must we not go? 
  6. Why are human traditions and external ceremonies an insufficient source of wisdom?
  7. Why is Christ the only source of true wisdom? Seven reasons are listed in Colossians 2:9-15. We will return to consider them in more detail next Sunday, Lord willing.

"Him we proclaim,
warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom,
that we may present everyone mature in Christ."
