Colossians 3:1-7
1ThereforeG3767 ifG1487 you have been 1raisedG4891 up with ChristG5547, keep seekingG2212 the things aboveG507, whereG3757 ChristG5547 is, 2seatedG2521 at the rightG1188 handG1188 of GodG2316. 234SetG5426 your mindG5426 on the things aboveG507, not on the things that are on earthG1093. 3For you have 5diedG599 and your lifeG2222 is hiddenG2928 with ChristG5547 in GodG2316. 4WhenG3752 ChristG5547, 6who is our lifeG2222, is revealedG5319, 7thenG5119 you alsoG2532 will be revealedG5319 with Him in gloryG1391.
58ThereforeG3767 9considerG3499 10the membersG3196 of your earthlyG1093 body as deadG3499 to 1112immoralityG4202, impurityG167, passionG3806, evilG2556 desireG1939, and greedG4124, whichG3748 13amountsG1510 to idolatryG1495. 6For it is becauseG1223 of theseG3739 thingsG3739 that 14the wrathG3709 of GodG2316 will comeG2064 15upon the sonsG5207 of disobedienceG545, 7and 16in them you alsoG2532 onceG4218 walkedG4043, whenG3753 you were livingG2198 17in them.
