Our focus is on Colossians 3:18-4:1. In this section of his letter, Paul describes what the gracious Lordship of Christ means for Christian households. Domestic “codes of conduct” were common in ancient Greece and Rome. But Paul’s instructions differ from these in some really significant ways! How do love and obedience to Jesus shape the lives of husbands and wives, parents and children, masters and servants? What is the danger in a family where one person rules over the rest with God-like authority? Or what happens when there are no family rules in place? How blessed we are when we trust in God’s Word and follow it!
