Questions for Further Study or Group Discussion:
- Read Colossians 3:1-17. This passage gives the conclusion to what Paul has written before. Consider Col. 2:8-15. What links are there between these two chapters?
- Why is thinking so important? What is the connection between our minds and how we live?
- What is “past tense” in Christ? What difference does this make for us?
- How is our present life empowered by Christ? Consider the commands in verse 1-17. Do we obey any apart from Christ? Why or why not?
- What do we learn about our future in verses 3-4? How do these truths make a difference today?
Memory Verse of the Week:
