The Apostle Paul used this word, teleios, to state his purpose for writing to the churches in Colossae, Laodicea, and Heirapolis, “It is he (Christ) whom we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone in all wisdom, so that we may present everyone mature (teleios) in Christ” (Colossians 1:28). This verse serves as the mission statement of the Teleios Society and the Teleios Journal. Teleios is honored to have a distinguished group of scholars on its Editorial Board. Members of the Editorial Board come from the Church of Christ, the Christian Church (Independent), and the ICOC.
