1:1 Greeting and encouragement
1 This letter is from Paulos (Paul), a missionary appointed by Yeshua (Jesus) the messiah, not by people or through any human authority. I’m writing to the fellow believers in Laodikeia (Laodicea). 2 May you all experience grace and peace from God the father and the master Yeshua the messiah.
3 I thank the messiah whenever I pray, because you remain in him and keep doing his work as you wait for the promise to be fulfilled on judgement day. 4 Don’t let the empty talk of people who slip in among you unsettle you. They’re trying to turn you away from the truth of the good message that I announce. 5 Now God will enable those who are associated with me to keep serving the truth of the good message, helping it spread, doing good, and working towards salvation—eternal life.[fn]
