WHY STUDY LANGUAGE?!

COLOSSIANS 4:2

Devote yourselves to prayer,

being watchful and thankful.

³And pray for us, too,

that God may open a door for our message,

so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ,

for which I am in chains.

(though we're not in chains!)

⁴Pray that I may proclaim it clearly, as I should.

⁵Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders;

make the most of every opportunity.

⁶Let your conversation be always full of grace,

seasoned with salt,

so that you may know how to answer everyone.
