You need to throw that English Standard Version or whatever erroneous version your using in the trash.

Colossians 1:24 Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the church:

Now let’s look at a word for word transliteration of the Greek in the order they are in the Greek.

Colossians 1:24 Now I rejoicing in the sufferings for you and I am filling up that which is lacking of the tribulation of Christ in the flesh of me the body of him which is the church.

Notice the “lacking of the tribulation of Christ in the flesh of me”. You stand corrected again. Feel free to have the last word.

CynicalBear, would you mind explaining what that verse means? I have never been satisfied that I understand what Paul is saying there
