The New Man

Text: Colossians 3.1-17

The new man has left behind all cravings of the world, and he has passed to live in Christ and for Christ. 2Corinthians 5.17

• Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Colossians 3.1; James 4.4
•  Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.  Colossians 3.2; Romans 12.2
• For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. Colossians 3.3; Romans 13.14
• When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.  Colossians 3.4; 1John 3.2
• Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry. Colossians 3.5; 1Peter 2.1,2
• Because of these, the wrath of God is coming. You use to walk in these ways, in the life you once lived. Colossians 3.6,7; 2Thessalonians 1.7-9
• But now you must rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips. Colossians 3.8; Galatians 5.16-21
• Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator. Colossians 3.9,10; Efésios 5.3-8

• Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another.  Forgive as the Lord forgave you. Colossians 3.13; Mathew 5.23,24
• And of all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Colossians 3.14,15; 1John 3.14-18
• Let the Word of Christ dwell in your richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.  Colossians 3. 16,17; Hosea 6.3
