The short letter to the Colossians has played a significant role in
the development of Christian thought. Its emphases on salvation as
largely realized here and now, on knowledge in relation to faith,
on Christ as the head of the church, on the entire cosmos and all
humanity as the objects of God s work of redemption through him,
and on Paul s authority all these point in the direction of church
theology at the end of the apostolic period. Christian notions of
ethical responsibility between asceticism and worldliness, as well
as the subordination of wives to husbands and slaves to masters,
were influenced by the household table of Colossians 3:18 4:1. In
the fourth century Colossians' Christological claims surfaced on
opposite sides of the Arian controversy, which dealt with the
status of the Son of God in relation to the Father/Creator and the
created order. In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries,
Colossians attracted special attention as theologians and ordinary
believers have wrestled with new questions about science and
religious pluralism."
