Put up with each other, and forgive anyone who does you wrong, just as Christ has forgiven you.

Think about what is up there, not about what is here on earth.

Do your work willingly, as though you were serving the Lord himself, and not just your earthly master.

God loves you and has chosen you as his own special people. So be gentle, kind, humble, meek, and patient.

Let the message about Christ completely fill your lives, while you use all your wisdom to teach and instruct each other. With thankful hearts, sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs to God. Whatever you say or do should be done in the name of the Lord Jesus, as you give thanks to God the Father because of him.

Love is more important than anything else. It is what ties everything completely together.

You have been raised to life with Christ. Now set your heart on what is in heaven, where Christ rules at God's right side.

Each one of you is part of the body of Christ, and you were chosen to live together in peace. So let the peace that comes from Christ control your thoughts. And be grateful.

Don't be controlled by your body. Kill every desire for the wrong kind of sex. Don't be immoral or indecent or have evil thoughts. Don't be greedy, which is the same as worshipping idols.

You died, which means that your life is hidden with Christ, who sits beside God.

But now you must stop doing such things. You must stop being angry, hateful, and evil. You must no longer say insulting or cruel things about others.

And stop lying to each other. You have given up your old way of life with its habits. Each of you is now a new person. You are becoming more and more like your Creator, and you will understand him better.

A husband must love his wife and not abuse her.

Children must always obey their parents. This pleases the Lord.

A wife must put her husband first. This is her duty as a follower of the Lord.
