Col 4:16 And when this letter has been read among you, have it also read in the church of the Laodiceans; and see that you also read the letter from Laodicea. |
That brings up an interesting point... Since we have the letter Paul wrote to the Collosians as canon, how come we don't have the letter written to the Laodiceans?
We can safely assume that the two letters are different, as Paul wanted them to share the content of the letters.
