Colossians 3:1-6

Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on Colossians 3:1-6

1Therefore, since you have been raised with Christ, strive for the things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.
2Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.
3For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.
4When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.
5Put to death, therefore, the components of your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires, and greed, which is idolatry.
6Because of these, the wrath of God is coming on the sons of disobedience.
— Colossians 3:1-6
