Col 3:16 Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. Jesus Christ is the living Word of GOD, and we who have been washed clean from our sins in His Own blood (Rev 1:5) and made (...kings and priests unto GOD and his Father...Rev 1:6) are to have a tenacious grip not only on our blessed hope in Him (Titus 2:13), but also on the Word of GOD through which (....are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises...II Pe 1:4).
