       Paul told the Colossian church the following: “If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is your life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory” (Colossians 3:1-4, ESV). To set our minds on things which are above, that takes a concerted effort. Now, what is this that Paul is talking about in regard to sin. We have already talked out how our bodies of sin have been brought to nothing. We said that when we died and were buried with Christ. But Paul says something interesting here, “so that we would no longer be enslaved to sin.”
