Live as God’s People (Colossians 3:1-8) God's Word translation

1  Since you were brought back to life with Christ, focus on the things that are above—where Christ holds the highest position. 
2  Keep your mind on things above, not on worldly things. 
3  You have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. 
4  Christ is your life. When he appears, then you, too, will appear with him in glory.
5  Therefore, put to death whatever is worldly in you: your sexual sin, perversion, passion, lust, and greed (which is the same thing as worshiping wealth). 
6  It is because of these sins that God’s anger comes on those who refuse to obey him.
7  You used to live that kind of sinful life. 
8  Also get rid of your anger, hot tempers, hatred, cursing, obscene language, and all similar sins.
