Colossians 3:1-4 Part One of Two NKJV



Colossians 3:1-4 If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, siting at the right hand of God.


Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.


For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.


When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.


1 Corinthians 6:9-12 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived, Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites,


nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, will inherit the  kingdom of God.


And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.


All things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.


Philippians 4:4-9 Rejoice in the Lord always, again I will say, rejoice!


Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand.


Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to god;


and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.


Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy-- mediate on these things.


The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you,


Ephesians 1:15-23 Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints,
 
do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;


that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him,


the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,
 
and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power


which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in heavenly places,


far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.


And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church,


which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.
