Colosenses 3:6 Meaning and Commentary

Colossians 3:6

For which things' sake
Those sins above mentioned, ( Colossians 3:5 ) :

the wrath of God;
the effects of it in temporal judgments, and eternal ruin and destruction, the wrath to come, which all are deserving of, and there is only deliverance from by Christ:

cometh upon the children of disobedience:
who are disobedient both to the law of God, and Gospel of Christ: who are unbelievers in him, are rebellious and gainsaying, reject his calls, the persuasions of his ministers, set at nought his counsel, and will have none of his reproof. There have been already instances of God's displeasure at sin, his indignation against it, and his judgments on account of it: his wrath is revealed from heaven, and it will come down from thence on disobedient and rebellious sinners, and that suddenly, and with great power, like a mighty torrent, that there will be no standing before it. This is a reason why such who have life in Christ should mortify, repress, and abstain from the above sins; for though this regards sinners, and ungodly persons, yet the effects of God's wrath on such show how much such sins are displeasing to him, and detested by him, and therefore to be avoided by the saints.

Colosenses 3:6 In-Context

4 Cuando Cristo —quien es la vida de ustedes
— sea revelado a todo el mundo, ustedes participarán de toda su gloria.

5 Así que hagan morir las cosas pecaminosas y terrenales que acechan dentro de ustedes. No tengan nada que ver con la inmoralidad sexual, la impureza, las bajas pasiones y los malos deseos. No sean avaros, pues la persona avara es idólatra porque adora las cosas de este mundo.

6 A causa de esos pecados, viene la furia de Dios.

7 Ustedes solían hacer esas cosas cuando su vida aún formaba parte de este mundo;

8 pero ahora es el momento de eliminar el enojo, la furia, el comportamiento malicioso, la calumnia y el lenguaje sucio.
