That is why Paul wrote to the Colossians: “We... have not ceased praying for you and asking that you may be filled with the accurate knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual comprehension, in order to walk worthily of Jehovah to the end of fully pleasing him as you go on bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the accurate knowledge of God. ”
Sellepärast kirjutas Paulus koloslastele: „Meie [ei ole]... lakanud palvet tegemast ja palumast teie eest, et teid täidetaks tema tahtmise tunnetusega kõiges vaimulikus tarkuses ja arusaamises, et te elaksite väärikalt Issandale, et temale kõigiti meeldida, vilja kandes kõiges heas töös ning kasvades Jumala tunnetuses ”.
