I speculate that Archippus was singled out in verse 17 because maybe he was slacking off. We don

Paul

The prayer request that Paul asked for of the Colossian believers that the Lord would open doors and that they would be able to communicate with them after that the door was opened. What it means when they say open doors is that the heart of the people that they are talking to will listen and will accept the word of God. When he asked for prayer in communicating the gospel was so when the door is open and we don

The guidelines that Paul gives us to form our prayer habits is to devote ourselves to prayer, be watchful and to be thankful. If I were to put these fully these practices into my prayer life it would bringing be closer to God and would make me put a closer watch on what I am doing in my life and what God is doing with me, The problems they would help me correct is to make it a habit to prayer for all things and to thank God for all that is going on in my life.

The instructions that Paul gives masters

If I apply Paul

The way that obedience prepares a child for everyday life in the future is that they will be able to follow instructions. It will also be able to give them the ability to think ahead and be able to accomplish some tasks on their own without being told. The way that obedience prepares a child for spiritual life in the future is by being obedient to their parents they will teach them the way they should pray and interact with spiritual leaders. The thing that fathers can do to keep from discouraging their children is to get involved in their life and to do things with them. They should encourage that at all times that they can. They should also discipline them when that is needed also.

I think that Paul chose these directions to give to wives and husbands because they are the things that will hold the marriage together. It is the mutual respect that is required and this requires mutual respect. The reason that true submission is difficult for wives is because they want to be their own person. Unselfish love is difficult for the husband because they think that they have got to be in control of all things and unselfish love makes it look like they lost control. This is a sissy thing in a manly world. I think the thing that prompts harshness in a husband is caused by an outer. We want to look like we have control and we want others to see that we have this control.

Christian virtues are so important to Christ because it shows where the heart is. The things of this world are against all these things therefore for us to show them it brands us of not being of this world. They are so important to the church because anytime that we don

The reason that the sins of the tongue is so easy to slip into is because a lot of times we talk before we think. When we hear this language all the time we have a hard time omitting it from our vocabulary. We have expressed our way before we became a Christian and it is still with us. With God

The reason that sexual **** is so difficult for people, especially males is because we are confronted with it all the time. It is put on our minds with the advertising because it is such a strong motivation. The way that we can keep sexual desire from controlling us and causing us to sin is to watch wholesome programs. I know when I watch the old TV shows there usually any sexual innuendos in them. But I know that this is one of the toughest things that I have to do. Only with God can it be accomplished.

When it says to

Legalism and asceticism is unable to restrain the sinful nature because it is not giving you a personal relationship with God. It makes it so we can judge each other and has nothing to do with the relationship with God. Paul

The way that forgiveness freed us from the Law was that Jesus Christ died for us to fulfilling the Law. The significance of nailing the Law to the cross was that it had been fulfilled and Jesus fulfilled it while he was here in earth and he took it to the cross. It symbolizes that the Law is dead. It has been wiped out. Jesus fulfilled the Law. The way the cross triumph over evil spiritual forces is that we no longer have to fear death is if we believed in Jesus while we were here on earth then when we die we no longer have to fear the evil one.

Verse 9 teaches us that all we need is Christ because he has the full divinity. How could we need any more? The sense that we are

The way that a belief system could be empty and false is to believe in something that has no merit like believing that the government can provide you with everything that you will need in this world. Yes, I have personally experienced being captivated by a belief system only to find it deceptive and hollow. That was when I was tied up in legalism thinking I had to do things for God.

The sense that

Paul

The mystery that Paul is talking about is that he revealed to the Gentiles that Christ is in them and they also have the hope of glory. The sense that

Paul

Our faith does depend upon the grace of God that is why it is necessary for us to

The only way that we can be presented

Reconcile means to get right with God. The only way we can do this it through Jesus Christ. We can do it that way by confessing our sins to him and try not to commit them again. Our state before reconciliation was our sins and self-centeredness.
