Verse
Colossians - ch 3 v 1 - 20
- Therefore, if you be risen with Christ, seek the things that are above; where Christ is sitting at the right hand of God:
- Mind the things that are above, not the things that are upon the earth.
- For you are dead; and your life is hid with Christ in God.
- When Christ shall appear, who is your life, then you also shall appear with him in glory.
- Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, lust, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is the service of idols.
- For which things the wrath of God cometh upon the children of unbelief,
- In which you also walked some time, when you lived in them.
- But now put you also all away: anger, indignation, malice, blasphemy, filthy speech out of your mouth.
- Lie not one to another: stripping yourselves of the old man with his deeds,
- And putting on the new, him who is renewed unto knowledge, according to the image of him that created him.
- Where there is neither Gentile nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian nor Scythian, bond nor free. But Christ is all, and in all.
- Put ye on therefore, as the elect of God, holy, and beloved, the bowels of mercy, benignity, humility, modesty, patience:
- Bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if any have a complaint against another: even as the Lord hath forgiven you, so do you also.
- But above all these things have charity, which is the bond of perfection:
- And let the peace of Christ rejoice in your hearts, wherein also you are called in one body: and be ye thankful.
- Let the word of Christ dwell in you abundantly, in all wisdom: teaching and admonishing one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual canticles, singing in grace in your hearts to God.
- All whatsoever you do in word or in work, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
- Wives, be subject to your husbands, as it behoveth in the Lord.
- Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter towards them.
- Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing to the Lord.
