       A lot of people come to Christ at a younger age, and therefore don’t face a lot of these entrapments. It really just varies on a person by person basis. But that’s primarily because we have been raised in a Christian nation, one in which Christianity if very prevalent, and a lot of people were brought up in Christian homes. We need to remember for the Colossians, Christianity was brand new. They were Gentiles, and hadn’t been Jews striving under the Jewish Law. They knew nothing pertaining to the real God in their prior lives. They were given to living lives without the influence of God, but with the total influence of a way that knew nothing of him. And that’s the beautiful thing regarding the Gospel of Jesus Christ, is that it takes people from ways in which they once walked, and puts them on a new path. God can break the power of sin for people, for individuals who feel entrapped by whatever it is, whatever has plagued them in their lives. This is what the Colossians had discovered, and this what people discover in our day and age.
