Colossians Chapter 3 Discussion Page 4

Biblical repentance in context is to rethink or change your mind. Nowhere in scripture does it say repent of your sins. God repented several times he can not sin. We are to change our mind about where we put our faith and turn it to Jesus. It involves no human merit what so ever.

i did this for hoomework... ot was worth it

Hear again O man, for as long as this heaven and earth remain, so will these wicked pervert the right ways of the LORD JESUS. And, for as long as Christ is in his flesh, so shall ye be in your flesh. And the woman whom GOD favours shall sleep until you repent of your own sins, giving place to faith. Thus, There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.

Colossians 3:12-17

"...above all these things put on charity,3:14" "Charity...beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Charity never faileth." 1Cor.13:4-8; "3:14 ...the bond of perfectness", capsules the essence of The Godhead and the Word; God is Love. Love sent His Son to Calvary that we may have eternal life, because of this Love came the Comforter--the Spirit of Truth.

God gave me Col. 3 a few years back. While walking and talking to God He brought up Col. 3. I broke down crying because I was very depressed and needed strengeth and encouragement. Because of God's grace, love and mercy I'm still here. I think, meditate and apply Col. 3 nearly every day since that time. All because of the power of the Holy Spirit am I able to live the Christian life. Praise God ..

Christ died for us and if we want to we can invite Him into out hearts for salvation. Someone of us ride in our cars to church. Some have to walk and others hitch a ride with someone. We are all going to the same place church. So maybe our comfort zone has been invaded and the hairs on our neck stands up. But if itt's only a change of sound and not doctrine we need to thank God others are coming.

The Lord put this verse in my heart, Colossians 3:2
"Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth." It seems we sometimes worry too much on our life,marriage,children, but forget we should be focusing on Him and searching his kingdom

Verse 23~This verse shows that we should try to glorify Jehovah God in every aspect of our lives.

Thank you Steve marrow. I have a situation at my church (independent Bible Believing Baptist KJV). My pastor is playing and making rock music that sounds very dark. Please pray for my family as well as my church. Thankyou.

A disciple or Steve marrow-
In reference to verses 16 and 17, is it sin to listen to hard rock sounding music with drums and guitars that doesn't have words? Obviously it feeds the flesh, is it sin?

Let the word of God dwell in you richly in all wisdom teaching admonishing one another in all hymns spiritual songs and singing grace unto Lord. I will praise you Jesus forever cleanse my heart my mind and my soul and let your Holy Spirit guide me in every thing i do and i speak my Jehova Jireh the Lord my provider Shalom

Verse 5~We must continue to keep control of our desires so that they do not get out of hand and we end up becoming a slave to them and making them our god.

Sabrina; What are you confused about? This Epistle like all Epistles is about how to understand and put in practice the grace of God given to us in the Glad Tidings of Jesus Christ; and how to perform from the heart without hypocrisy what is good and well pleasing to God, in a world set to defy and contradict Him. Line by line, line by line, precept upon precept, as we walk in the Light we grow.

"And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men " How many thousands of times have we tried to do good only to be sadly disappointed by people's indifference, or taking it all the wrong way! We wonder why some just automatically assume evil or deceitful motives, and leave hardly any room for natural friendly relations but that is unfortunately what we often meet with from men saved and unsaved! But Jesus is never like that with any of us. He is truly "A Friend that sticks closer than a brother." And while we cannot help but want to please others and be loved and accepted we must rise above our natural feelings, and the things of this life to look solely unto Him who is always constant and faithful in His love and acceptance knowing that the things we do with the best intentions to men are all kept in good remembrance with Jesus and He never can forget or overlook the slightest efforts.

I'm very confused I am trying to understand

Thank you Jesus for teaching the Disciples who helped inscribe your Word from the Father. Thank you Lord for this opportunity to brings thoughts forward for other Christians to see. Anger and wrath is part of my flesh as yesterday the auto driver cuts in front of me. It feels good to enlist these dangerous emotions. Yet you Lord promise forgiveness and retreat from such actions in our Gospel, Amen

If ye be risen with Christ seek those things that are above where Christ sitting at the right hand of the Father I will praise you and worship you Jesus pray for us that our needs will be provided Abba Father i love you forever amen

Please engage in an experiment with me...Set the Ten Commandments alongside you ( Exodus 20). Then, while reading this chapter, study the Ten Commandments. You will find the one foreshadows the other. You will find the New Testament law of love and grace, mirrors beautifully, the Ten Commandments...quite a Sunday School lesson here...

Yes That is our Ultimate Goal to keep our every being set on Jesus Christ so that we can be assured our home in Heaven with Our Loving Creator. Although this is not easy as we are sinners and need Gods help!

Verse 2: There are so many distractions in the world today, but we want to follow this counsel to fix our minds on spiritual things.

it's very important for the children to obey their parents as this is pleasing unto the Lord. This is very strong commandments to honour thy Father and thy mother

Verse 16: one way that we can encourage others is by singing spiritually upbuilding songs.

Verse 9: We should put off the old personality just as we would take off a dirty and foul smelling garment. We must work hard to put on the new personality that is approved by God.

Colossians 3:23 tells us plainly who we are to please. It does not matter whether or not our job is considered to be important or not. If we do the job for God and not for any worldly praise, then that is all that matters.

Amen.

Verse 13: We must continue to put up with one another in the same way that God continues to put up with us. Jehovah God has freely forgiven us and we should imitate his example of forgiveness.

Edna: It is a Feeling. Those who're Saved have Great Joy in Their Heart:if They are Studying,telling Others The Way of Salvation,having Fellowship. That's why Paul and Others were Singing in Prison. Acts 16:25. The Lord keeps The Joy in Our Heart: Jude 24. Deep Down In Our Heart. One who is NOT Saved will NOT have that Joy. Pastors say if you feel lost,no joy don't worry,that's Satan./That's False
