Further teaching for believers

Col 4:2–6

4:2 Further teaching for believers

2Persevere in prayer, keeping watch and being thankful. 3Pray together for us as well that God would open a door for us to share the message—to tell about the mystery of the messiah. That’s also why I’m in chains—4so that I can explain the mystery whenever I have an opportunity to speak.

5[ref]Use wisdom as you all walk towards non-believers, using the time wisely. 6Always show grace in your conversations, like a meal that’s seasoned with salt, so you’ll know how to answer each person in their situation.
