Paul’s teaching within chapter 2 is an argument directed against the false teaching that has infected the church at Colossae. In response to this false teaching, Paul develops the overarching argument of his letter - that the Colossians can be confident in Christ alone. In this passage, Paul challenges two dangerous teachings that the Colossians Church were falling into; dangers that are still hazardous for christians today.
