Discuss Colossians 4 Page 3

Colossians 4:6 Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man. I have to remind myself, answering everyone with guidelines and with Grace. God is Love, there for we must Love one another.

Verse 6 is so important when it comes to communication with non believers. Always be mindful how you witness to people. As a Christian, we must be tactful with grace in spreading the word of God. Some people really don't believe that hell exist or that Jesus can save you from your sins. But how would they know unless we show them through the word of God. Be wise as a serpent

The things above is what us Christian's should have feelings for...whatever gifts recieve from Heaven ....Heaven this world ..... Amen

We always want our words to build people up not tear down. Good thing to remember in world that is full of hurtful speech and negative thoughts. Our conduct and speech should always be in good taste, considerate and wholesome.

I learn to trust jesus more and lay all cares and concern on him jesus is the reason all the season

We should never hurt anyone with words intentionally. Even truth can hurt if told coldly, without consideration of other persons feelings. Truth needs to be told, but not with the aim to hurt or disgrace anyone, but always to help them. We need to tell it in a manner that is beneficial to the listener, praying to God through Christ to give us the proper uterance. God bless you all.

In everthing we do ask God for his his wisdom to guide and direct us,as quoted in verse in 5 of this chapter.

I want to get closer to the Lord and get my soul cleaned to serve Jesus

Always treat all pple in a right equal manner

THE THINGS ABOVE WHERE JESUS IS SITTING AT THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD IS BOTH TRUE AND ETERNAL! THE THINGS ON EARTH IS A TEMPORAl PLACE CAUSE OF THE SIN THAT 'S DESTROYING THE WORLD! CAUSE OF SATAN AND HIS LIES THE WORLD HAS BEEN DECEIVE TO FOLLOW HIS WAYS AND WILL NOT BE ABLE TO STAND FOREVER! DEATH IS IN THE WORLD CAUSE OF THE LIES OF SATAN WE BELIEVED FROM THE BEGINNING IN GENESIS CHAPTER 3! THAT 'S WHY AS BELIEVERS IN CHRIST WE MUST CONTINUE TO STUDY AND UNDERSTAND THE WORD OF GOD SO SATAN CAN NOT FILL US WITH LIES! WHEN JESUS WAS ON EARTH, AT HIS WEAKEST POINT CAUSE OF NOT EATING NOTHING FOR FORTY DAYS, SATAN CAME AT JESUS WITH TEMPORARY WORLDLY THINGS! CAUSE JESUS WAS FILLED WITH SO MUCH WORD AND TRUTH, SATAN HAD NO CHANCE TO TURN JESUS FROM THE TRUTH WITH HIS LIES! AS BELIEVERS WE MUST SET OUR MINDS ON THE ETERNAL THINGS ABOVE CAUSE WE KNOW THIS WORLD AS WE KNOW IT IS ONLY TEMPORARY! LORD HELP US TO FOCUS OUR MIND ON THE TRUTH SO WE WANT ALLOW THE LIES OF SATAN TO DESTROY OUR LIVES ANYMORE! CAUSE THE TRUTH WORD OF GOD WILL SET US FREE! "WHO THE SON SETS FREE IS FREE INDEED "! AMEN! GLORY BE TO GOD!!!

thank you for your help in my studies

...continuous prayer? When we are ever aware of our spiritual connection with the Father thru Jesus ' intercession and the Holy Ghost, there is not always a need for words. Our very existence fulfills this prayer state of being.

CONTINUE IN PRAYER, MANY PRAY BUT FAINT AT SOME POINT.IT MEANS PRAY ALWAYS THAT IS ALL TIME

Verse 4 is the sum " that you may stand perfect and complete in the will of God ". God 's master plan is that we stand perfect think holy, walk holy, talk holy, live holy in this present world. Our living is congruent with the perfect will of God. We are to walk in the Spirit of godliness and not in the lust of the flesh.

Pray and praise as we personify the word of God in our flesh by our speech and walk.

Like every other Paul ' letters in verse 6 its advising us to be mild. Always us comforting words or seasoned words to one another. Not to use hard hash words.

Prayer is the master key for our salvation and its the only way that we communicate with our father in heaven.lets keep on praying always.

We should therefore pray and encourage one another.

for us to redeem the outsiders we have to over look their offences

This verse clears the 'he' who should complete/perform/fulfill the good work he started until the lord comes in philippians chapter 1:6

Col 4:5 says will should not pay evil with evil even if is not conviniece. will should pray for the wisdom and grace.

It seems to me, that this particular Jesus was just a man whose name happened to be the same as Jesus the Christ. If they were referring to Jesus, Lord and Savior, it seems as though they would have given Him more reverence.

It makes us understand follow ups after evangelism.
The evangelist should be faithful, God fearing of and also be able to teach the word God to a new convert.

Versus 11, says: And Jesus, which is called Justus, who are of the cir***cision. These only are my fellowworkers unto the kingdom of God, which have been a comfort unto me. ....... Did you all hear that!.... Jesus, who is called Justus; who is God, who became man, (According to the book of John chapter 1) who first showed us how we are to walk, before saving our lives from destruction; for God came off the right hand of the throne, to bless us to become like him, and now we all are to do, just what Christ did, for in John 14:12 Jesus says, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.(Which means back to the throne) And he is called Justus......... Wow! for truly he was one of us.

So all of us should be going after the power of God that we may, live, and do what Jesus did, and more, for this is our purpose in life, and if we're not healing the sick through the power of God, or not trying to, than we should fear, and start diligently seeking after God for his power, for God requires increase.

As the chosen peoples of the most high,we should walk wisedom, talk and think wisedom especailly to the world that is surroundering us.Wisedom does not call for compromise.

In this chapter, I can see the importance of love, unity amongst brethren, forbearing one another's pain in this ministry Christ has called us to. Believers, we are called to watch and pray, verse 2 giving thanks to God, verse 3, praying for all, allover and especially for those with a high calling that they may be able to utter these words as the spirit leads them. We should therefore pray and encourage one another in this race. God bless all the readers.

B. Miller, Mark is Barnabas' nephew not a cousin.

Colossians 4:2 We need to continue in prayer, constant prayer and thank the Lord for the answer when we pray. God does hear us and we need to believe that He hears us when we pray. Stay in faith, don't stop praying until you have the manifestation of your prayer. Example there was constant prayer made for Peter when he was in jail. They didn't stop praying for Peter until he was free.(this is found in the book of Acts) I like what the amplified version says on this verse. Colossians 4:2 Be earnest and unwearied and steadfast in your prayer life being both alert and intent in your praying with thanksgiving( end of verse). Heaven will not move until earth moves in prayer and coming boldly before the throne of God , making our request made known unto Him. God Bless Everyone who reads this

Phil 4:14 identifies Luke as the beloved physician but Luke was not an apostle.

That we have what it takes to do the work in Chris!t when the time is right we should not only know Christ and what he made available to us which is eternal life, but also be ready to spread it to others, and to be aware of who God uses to work deeply in the ministry when you see and hear them not to think that they think they know too much because you are not doing nothing yourself, be alert of what is going on and be awake of the trick of the enemy.
