Colossians 3:1-17

Here in chapter three, the book of Colossians takes a bit of a turn. Paul is now giving clear instructions on what holy living for the Christian should look like. In Colossians 3:1-17 the Apostle Paul shows us the marks of a transformed life. What are the visible signs of a Christian life and godly character? Here in this text we are called to “put off” the old self and walk in a new direction by “putting on” the characteristics of Christ. But how is this possible?! Paul shows us in this passage that for those in Christ, we have been given everything needed to live a transformed life.
