Colossians 3 - KJV - How Well Are You Listening?
If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
Colossians 3:4:
When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.

Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:

For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
Colossians 3:7:
In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.

And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:

Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
Colossians 3:12:
Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
Colossians 3:13:
Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
Colossians 3:14:
And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
Colossians 3:15:
And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
Colossians 3:16:
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
Colossians 3:17:
And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
Colossians 3:18:
Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.

Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.

Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.
Colossians 3:21:
Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.
Colossians 3:22:
Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God:
Colossians 3:23:
And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;
Colossians 3:24:
Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.
Colossians 3:25:
But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.

Matthew 22:37-40 - King James Version
“ The Two Great Commandments”
37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind."
38 This is the first and great commandment."
39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself."
40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets."
Apostles' Creed
Apostles' Creed
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit
and born of the virgin Mary.
He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
he descended to hell.
The third day he rose again from the dead.
He ascended to heaven
and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty.
From there he will come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic* church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. Amen.
*that is, the true Christian church of all times and all places
__________
This creed is called the Apostles' Creed not because it was produced by the
apostles themselves but because it contains a brief summary of their
teachings. It sets forth their doctrine "in sublime simplicity, in
unsurpassable brevity, in beautiful order, and with liturgical solemnity." In
its present form it is dated no later than the fourth century. More than any
other Christian creed, it may justly be called an ecumenical symbol of faith.
This translation of the Latin text was approved by the CRC Synod of 1988.
