1 Therefore, if you were raised with Christ, look for the things that are above where Christ is sitting at God’s right side.
2 Think about the things above and not things on earth.
3 You died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
4 When Christ, who is your life, is revealed, then you also will be revealed with him in glory.
5 So put to death the parts of your life that belong to the earth, such as sexual immorality, moral corruption, lust, evil desire, and greed (which is idolatry).
6 The wrath of God is coming upon disobedient people because of these things.
7 You used to live this way, when you were alive to these things.
