In the first part of Colossians 3, Paul describes taking off an old way of living and putting on a new one that looks like the life of Jesus. Lying, greed, anger and rage are out. Kindness, humility, patience, forgiveness and love are in. His description of new life in Jesus is focused on how we treat one another.
“Let the message about Christ, in all its richness, fill your lives. Teach and counsel each other with all the wisdom he gives. Sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to God with thankful hearts. And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father.” Colossians 3:16-17
