1 You were raised from death with Christ. So aim at what is in heaven, where Christ is sitting at the right hand of God.
2 Think only about the things in heaven, not the things on earth.
3 Your old sinful self has died, and your new life is kept with Christ in God.
4 Christ is your life. When he comes again, you will share in his glory.
5 So put all evil things out of your life. Get rid of sexual immorality and impure acts. Don’t let your feelings get out of control. Remove from your life all evil desires. Stop always wanting more and more. This really means living to serve a false god.
