Colossians 3:1-3, 3:4
What Paul is talking about here is the Christian approach to Kingdom culture.
1. THERE’S THE KINGDOM OF GOD (ABOVE) AND THE CULTURES OF THE EARTH (BELOW).
2. THE KINGDOM OF GOD BEGINS, NOT THE MOMENT YOU DIE, BUT THE MOMENT YOU RECEIVE JESUS.
3. CHRISTIAN, WE DON’T LIVE CULTURE UP, BUT KINGDOM DOWN.
Col 3:5-6 1. Sexual immorality. 2. Impurity. 3. Passion, 4. Evil desire, 5. Covetousness. WHATEVER IT IS THAT IS IN THE PROCESS OF KILLING YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD, YOU'VE GOT TO PUT THAT TO DEATH.
3:6 the wrath of God is coming - GOD IS NOT NEGLIGENT, HE'S PATIENT.
3:7-10 DON'T BE LIKE YOU, BE LIKE JESUS.
Here's how relationships happen on the culture below (here on earth). Anger .Wrath, Malice, Slander, Obscene Talk, lying
3:11 WHEN WE GET OUR IDENTITY FROM ABOVE, AND NOT BELOW, JESUS BECOMES THE CENTER.
