We have been sold a pack of lies about what it means to be human. In this week's reading from Colossians 2, Paul is teaching us: We don’t have to let brokenness set our lens for reality. There is a greater reality than what we’ve seen. And we are to “fix our eyes on the reality of heaven.” In that reality we can put our old life to death and step in to our new nature.


"Since you have been raised to new life with Christ, set your sights on the realities of heaven, where Christ sits in the place of honor at God’s right hand. Think about the things of heaven, not the things of earth. For you died to this life, and your real life is hidden with Christ in God. And when Christ, who is your life, is revealed to the whole world, you will share in all his glory."
Colossians 3:1-4 (emphasis added)

"It is wise, however, to recognize the extraordinarily close connection between this new section and what has gone before. The Colossians were not to lose their freedom by submitting to the new teachers. On the contrary, they were to find and keep their freedom by submission to the rule of Christ."
Dick Lucas | The Message of Colossians
