We have reached the richness of chapter 3 of Colossians. “Seek the things that are above” is a present imperative. This means Paul is telling us to do this now and forever.

Paul tells us to both seek and set our minds on things that are above. Paul consistently teaches this throughout his epistles. We are to intimately renew our minds in Him.

Jesus Christ is all. He is everything. We are to put on the attributes listed here. As He has forgiven us, we are to forgive others. This being in Christ is the key to life. Living life in the context of the finished work of Jesus Christ is the key to life. This is the preaching of the Gospel to ourselves that Scripture demands of us. This is a focus on Jesus Christ our Lord that is uncommon in this world. We are to love, and we are promised peace that will rule in our hearts. A thankful heart follows. We are commanded to be thankful. Paul beautifully builds his argument here. The secret of life, doing everything in the name of Jesus Christ, leads us to having loving, peaceful, thankful hearts.
