Colossians 3
Manage episode 433223403 series 3514034
Paul has positioned Christ rightly as the one who is before all things, and in whom all things hold together. All things were created by him, through him, and for him. This same Christ humbled himself to death on a cross so that our debt our sin might be canceled. In doing so, he disarmed the rulers and authorities and disgraced them publicly, triumphing over them. With this as his preface, Paul tells the church to seek the things that are above, where Christ is, who rests in victory and in authority at the right hand of God. This means putting to death what belongs to our earthly nature, and putting on that which reflects Christ and his gospel of forgiveness and renewal. On a technical note, we’ll actually be reading up until chapter 4 verse 1 as it completes Paul’s thought.
