The New Testament in 50 days – day 33

March 11, 2010 by Pastor Jerry McQuay 

The Bronze level reading for today is Colossians 3, and man, is it practical! Here’s what stood out to me as I read:

  • The first 3 verses address a very big problem/need for most Christians – the battle is won or lost in our thoughts!
  • If we consistently practice verse 5, the Christian life is easy!
  • Col. 3:13 takes care of all our relationship problems!
  • Verse 15 gives us the overriding principle for making decisions, when the Word is not clear – peace is the umpire!
  • The final verses of the chapter address our biggest needs, whether we are a wife (v. 18), a husband (v. 19), a child (v. 20), a parent (v. 21), or an employee (vv. 22-24)

Whew – good stuff!  How ’bout any insights you received from your reading today?  Please share them below to encourage others-
