Colossae was an ancient city located in what is now Turkey.
Paul did not start the church in Colossae. According to his epistle to the Colossians (chapter 1, verse 7) Paul states that the Colossians learned about Christ through Epaphras, "fellow slave" of Christ.
A city of SW Asia Minor. In the apostle Paul's day Colossae was in the Roman province of Asia, though it formed part of the ancient region of Phrygia. The site is uninhabited at present. It lay near the upper end of the Lycus River valley, about 18 km (11 mi) ESE of Laodicea (near modern Denizli). The Lycus River valley is narrow in the region of Colossae, walled in by great cliffs, but broadens out as it progresses to the NW and the junction of the Lycus with the Maeander (Menderes) River. Through this valley passed the main road leading from Ephesus and the Aegean Coast to the E as far as the Euphrates. A road branched off from there to Sardis and Pergamum to the NW. During the Roman period, however, the road system was changed, and Laodicea and neighboring Hierapolis (Col 4:13) came to surpass Colossae in importance. Nevertheless, Colossae continued to be known as a textile center, noted for its fine wool of unusual hue, called colossinus. It lay on the edge of the lonely steppe country, where flocks of sheep were pastured. To the S some 5 km (3 mi), Honaz Dagi (Mt. Cadmus) rises 2,750 m (9,020 ft), its snows feeding streams that flowed past Colossae.
They are 2343 kilometers away. They are connected by E90 highway.
The evangelized at Colossae were primarily Gentile converts and a small number of Jewish believers. The Apostle Paul did not found the church there but wrote the Epistle to the Colossians to address issues of false teachings and to reinforce the supremacy of Christ. The church was likely established by Epaphras, a disciple of Paul, who played a key role in spreading the Gospel in the region.
The key people mentioned in the book of Colossians are the apostle Paul, Timothy, Onesimus, and the believers in Colossae to whom the letter is addressed.
The man who often refreshed Paul in the Bible was Philemon. Philemon was a wealthy Christian in Colossae who showed hospitality and support to Paul during his imprisonment. Paul mentions Philemon in his letter to the Colossians, expressing his gratitude for Philemon's care and encouragement.
No, the book of Colossians is found only in the New Testament. It is attributed to Paul, who wrote after the crucifixion of Jesus.
The New Testament epistles (letters) were written to churches in the cities or regions of Rome, Corinth, Galatia, Ephesus, Philippi, Colossae and Thessalonica. Revelation chapters 2 and 3 also relate letters Jesus had John write to specific "churches," though it is less certain whether these were literal churches or symbolic of situations within congregations of the first-century church in general.
