From an evangelical Christian perspective, the most-likely author of Colossians 2:9-10 is the Apostle Paul. Paul is often considered to be the author of the book of Colossians, based on the language, style, and theology present in the letter. Additionally, the early church fathers attributed the letter to Paul.

Colossians 2:9-10 says, “For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head over every power and authority.” These verses emphasize the deity of Christ and the believers’ completeness in Him.

Evangelical Christians believe that Paul was inspired by the Holy Spirit to write these words and that they are divinely inspired and authoritative for Christian belief and practice. The verses affirm the central tenets of the Christian faith, pointing to the identity of Jesus as fully God and the source of believers’ spiritual fulfillment and authority.
