Chris.
The Colossian Church had a Love for all people. This indeed is a God glorifying testimony. Too often the Church has been a hot bed of racial tension and religious bigotry. Even the Church itself has been divided over doctrine and experience. It is not a quest for something “new” to be a part of a loving Church. New Testament Churches were learning to be loving Churches.
