Consider:
- What does it mean to set our hearts and minds on “things above”?
- Do we simply not pay attention to what is happening in our day-to day lives, or not engage?
- What would it look like to others when we are doing this well?
- Looking at the ‘sin lists’ (v.5 & 8) which of these do we treat as more serious, and which do we give a pass?
- Likewise, in v.12-14, which of these virtues do we treat as optional?
In v.9-11, Paul talks about the image of God being renewed in a whole range of people.
- What obscures the image of God in us?
- Why is it important to remember that His image is in every person, whatever their background?
Act:
Choose a sin or a virtue that you struggle with and make a plan – when you are having a hard time choosing what you know to be right, how might you seek God’s strength in that moment?
What might be a memory verse you can use?
