Killing Sin (Colossians 3:5–11)

In his pursuit of instilling in the Colossians a Christ-centred worldview, Paul uses the analogy of being disrobed of sin and being robed in the virtues of Christ (3:5–17). In vv. 5–11, in particular, he focuses on the first part of that metaphor: putting to death what is earthly in us. As the year comes to a close, and we take the time to reflect on our lives, let’s take the time to see what needs to be put off, put to death even, in order to put on Christ.
