Seek the things which are above. Colossians 3: 1-10

Colossians 3: 1-10

If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things which are above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.

Set your minds on the things that are above, not on things that are on earth.

For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

When Christ appears, then you will also appear with him in glory.

Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

On account of these, the wrath of God is coming.

In these you too once walked, when you were living in them.

But now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from your mouth.

Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices

and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator.
