Summary

Colossians 3:1-4:1. Paul gives several descriptions of sins that we deal with. Because you have a new life in Christ and because God has cut away sin from your life in baptism, the Bible says we’re to put to death sin in our lives. We are to bring our behaviors, our words, and our thoughts in-line with our new identity. God has taken away sin in our lives, now while we remain in this earthly life, we still have to deal with the flesh, and Paul says the Christian is to bring our bodies under the lordship and control of Christ. We are to make a break with the sinful tendencies we have. God has set us free from sin. We’ve got to stop returning to it. When you’re a Christian and you sin, the Bible is saying that you’re acting out of character with who you are.
