Read: Colossians 3:5
So put to death the sinful, earthly things lurking within you. Have nothing to do with sexual immorality, impurity, lust, and evil desires. Don’t be greedy, for a greedy person is an idolater, worshiping the things of this world.Colossians 3:5 NLT
The moment that we accepted Jesus Christ in our life, we are severing our ties with earthly things. We became a person who walk in the path of righteousness. Therefore we must kill that sinful nature in us.
How can we kill it? Our sinful nature is not to be easily defeated. We must strengthen our faith and rely more on God to help us battle this enemy of ours. (He is our victory over sin and death)(He overcome everything that we ought to defeat. All we need is to trust him of our lives and let Him transform us daily- sanctification)
It is our duty as Christians' refrain from these things that will lead us to sinning. Because those things that is born out from our desire leads us to death as the world devour us due to our greed.
Put on your new nature, and be renewed as you learn to know your Creator and become like him.
Colossians 3:10
As God's children we must strive to know our Father who created us and leave our old nature and become like God. (our striving is supernaturally created in our lives as we humbly submit in His will as what He said in 1 Peter 1: 14-19 and also in Colossians 1:21-23)
In this new life, it doesn’t matter if you are a Jew or a Gentile, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbaric, uncivilized, slave, or free. Christ is all that matters, and he lives in all of us. (That's true)
Colossians 3:11
It doesn't matter what organizations or religions we belong (God will lead us to the truth, knowing that He and His words are truth, and therefore we will shun away whatever is contrary to the gospel of Christ).Being a Christian is not about the religion. It is all about Christ who saved us from sin and living a life like Him.
"Christianity is not a religion. It is a way of life. "
