*Forgiven: Now What?*
1 If then you were raised with Christ,
seek those things which are above,
where Christ is,
sitting at the right hand of God.
2 Set your mind on things above,
not on things on the earth.
3 For you died,
and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
4 When Christ /who is/ our life appears,
then you also will appear with Him in glory.
\\ \\
5 Therefore put to death your members which are on the earth:
fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.
6 Because of these things
the wrath of God is coming upon the sons of disobedience,
7 in which you yourselves once walked when you lived in them.
\\ \\
8 But now you yourselves are to put off all these:
anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy language out of your mouth.
9 Do not lie to one another,
since you have put off the old man with his deeds,
10 and have put on the new /man/
who is renewed in knowledge according to the image of Him who created him,
11 where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcised nor uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave /nor/ free, but Christ /is/ all and in all.
M.O.I. – Christian Living
C.I.T. – Paul exhorted the Colossians to have a change of attitude because of what God had brought about in their lives.
Thesis – Through Jesus, we have been placed in a spiritual relationship with God.
We have been set free from the bondage to sin, however, it is up to us whether we continue in that freedom.
Proposition – I want the church to have the proper attitude toward God and live lives that are acceptable to Him.
Probing Question – What in this passage teaches us the proper attitudes that will make us live acceptable lives to God.?
Unifying Word – attitudes
Transitional Sentence – Many people, in life, look for a hand-out.
This is a source of irritation to many of those that work to accomplish something in their lives.
However, the same thing happens spiritually.
God gives us the gift of eternal life and a changed life, but many times we want Him to continually hand out blessings when in reality we must do our part to receive them.
