Colossians 3:5-15

5So put to death whatever in your nature belongs to the earth: sexual immorality, impurity, shameful passion, evil desire, and greed which is idolatry.

6Because of these things the wrath of God is coming on the sons of disobedience.

7You also lived your lives in this way at one time, when you used to live among them.

8But now, put off all such things as anger, rage, malice, slander, abusive language from your mouth.

9Do not lie to one another since you have put off the old man with its practices

10and have been clothed with the new man that is being renewed in knowledge according to the image of the one who created it.

11Here there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave or free, but Christ is all and in all.

12Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with a heart of mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience,

13bearing with one another and forgiving one another, if someone happens to have a complaint against anyone else. Just as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also forgive others.

14And to all these virtues add love, which is the perfect bond.

15Let the peace of Christ be in control in your heart (for you were in fact called as one body to this peace), and be thankful.
