Focused Passage
Colossians 3:18
Raised with Christ: Putting Off the Old Life and Putting On the New
Paul moves from the believer's risen identity with Christ, to killing the old earthly life, to putting on the new humanity, to corporate peace, word-shaped worship, thankful living, household order, and work done under the lordship of Christ.
