“Walk worthily of the Lord to be fully pleasing, bearing fruit in every good work and growing in the knowledge of God.”
Colossians 1:10
Lumin’s Faithful Translation
The setting
Paul wrote this letter from prison around AD 60 to believers in Colossae facing pressure from local philosophies that mixed faith with human ideas. The phrase about walking worthily drew from everyday Greek culture where honorable conduct meant living consistently with one's commitments.
