Title: Lectures on the Epistle to the Colossians
Description: Expositions of Colossians abound, many of them of great value, yet each generation seems to call for fresh and new applications of divine truth. Hence this volume. These lectures have been delivered at many Bible conferences throughout the United States and Canada, and are issued in book form in response to the earnest requests of many who heard them. -- Preface.

The Church was passing through critical days when the Epistle to the Colossians was being written. Christianity seemed likely to be overwhelmed by a mixture of Jewish legalism, Grecian philosophy and Oriental mysticism. But the Lord was watching over His own Truth; and to combat this Satan-inspired system that sought to rob the saints of the true Christ, the book of Colossians was written. We are again passing through critical days. False cults put the true Christ of God at a distance and attempt to substitute an imaginary Christ -- a Christ who is not an atoning Savior. But God in His wisdom allowed this error and every other possible error to arise first in the early church so that they might all be exposed and the truth declared in His inspired Word. As a result, Satan has nothing new to offer. His "new" false cults are but old heresies revised, and all the Christian needs to protect himself against them is a clear understanding of God's Word. In Lectures on the Epistle to the Colossians, Dr. Ironside carefully points out God's answer to doctrinal errors and shows how we as Christians can be occupied with the Head of the Church, and thus kept from all error and coldness of heart. -- Jacket flap.
