In this sermon pastor Jamie continues his exposition of Colossians chapter 3 by considering verse 12. Having called the Colossians to put off the old self in verses 5-11, here in verses 12-17 he calls them to put on the new self. In these six verses he presents three features of the new self- The identity -v. 12a-, the virtues -v. 12b-14-, and the priorities of the new self -v. 15-17-. In this first of three messages on these six verses pastor Jamie considers the identity of the new self.
