Colossians 2:6–8 Rooted and built up in him
The Christians were tempted to give in cultural and societal pressure. Jesus is not one of many gods. He is the only true God.
Colossians 3:12–16 Clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility etc. These qualities do not come to us naturally.
Let the peace of Christ rule in your heart.
It is intentional because situations and the world push us to do the opposite. It takes effort, and you need the Holy Spirit to do so.
V18–25 What is the motivation for submission/ love/ obedience to your master?
The Lord=Christ. It is the Lord we are serving. Christ must be at the centre of everything we do.
If you don't worship or think right (Colossians 2:8), you can't live right (Coll 4:5).
It starts with your thoughts.
