Advancing in faith, Paul labored unceasingly for the upbuilding of God's kingdom among those who had been neglected by the teachers in Israel. Constantly he exalted Christ Jesus as "the King of kings, and Lord of lords" (1 Timothy 6:15), and exhorted the believers to be "rooted and built up in Him, and stablished in the faith." Colossians 2:7.

Paulus gik frem i tro og arbejdede uden ophør for at opbygge Guds rige blandt dem, der var blevet forsømt af Israels lærere. Bestandig ophøjede han Kristus som "kongernes Konge og herrernes Herre," og formanede de troende til at være "rodfæstede i ham og i ham opbygges og befæstes i troen." 1Tim. 6,15. Kol. 2,7.
