In the first two chapters of Colossians, Paul lays out a variety of truths that would help the Christians back then, and each of us today, keep "Jesus at the Center" of all that we say and do. Having explained those truths, Paul then turns the corner in chapter 3 and begins to explain in practical ways how to live out those truths every day, throughout the day. By the works of the Holy Spirit and focused on all God has done for us by His grace and love in Jesus, we can experience the joy and blessing of "Living for Jesus".
