Colossians 3 Summary

Colossians 3 calls believers to set their hearts on things above, put off sin, put on Christlike virtues, and do everything for the Lord.

Raised with Christ, we are to ‘set our minds on things above,’ putting to death sins like anger and lies, and clothing ourselves with compassion, kindness, and love.

Whatever we do, ‘do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus,’ working ‘as for the Lord’—at home, at work, and in the church.
