What a great time we had together !!!!! Trying out new games , delicious pizza and most importantly we learned more about how to become holy with these 3 points
1. Pursue Jesus.
2. Chase Improvement over Perfection.
3. Love People
Since you have been raised to new life with Christ, set your sights on the realities of heaven,
where Christ sits in the place of honor at God’s right hand. 2 Think about the things of heaven,
not the things of earth. 3 For you died to this life, and your real life is hidden with Christ in God. 4
And when Christ, who is your life, is revealed to the whole world, you will share in all his glory.
5 So put to death the sinful, earthly things lurking within you. Have nothing to do with sexual
immorality, impurity, lust, and evil desires. Don’t be greedy, for a greedy person is an idolater,
worshiping the things of this world. 6 Because of these sins, the anger of God is coming. 7 You
used to do these things when your life was still part of this world. 8 But now is the time to get rid
of anger, rage, malicious behavior, slander, and dirty language. 9 Don’t lie to each other, for you
have stripped off your old sinful nature and all its wicked deeds. 10 Put on your new nature, and
be renewed as you learn to know your Creator and become like him. 11 In this new life, it doesn’t
matter if you are a Jew or a Gentile, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbaric, uncivilized, slave,
or free. Christ is all that matters, and he lives in all of us.
12 Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with
tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. 13 Make allowance for each
other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you
must forgive others. 14 Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us all together in
perfect harmony. 15 And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as
members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful.
NLT
Colossians 3:1-15
