Paul corrects them by saying the Christian life is about living as those who have died and been resurrected with Christ, not about getting God's attention through strange practices. The study questions guide readers to analyze what Colossians 3 says about putting off sinful behaviors and putting on Christ-like qualities.

2. Bible Study Colossians 3 Bible Study Colossians 3 Sometimes we humans do pretty silly tricks in an attempt to earn God’s favor. We think if we are “holy” (meaning sinless or trying to be) we are mature Christians. That is not the case according to this passage. This letter, written to the Colossians, indicated their wrong idea of how to live the Christian life. They were worshipping angels and practicing asceticism or harming their bodies. Paul corrected them by saying that the true Christian life is living out the reality of the understanding of one’s death and resurrection with Christ. It is not about getting God’s attention; we have that. It is about being the ambassador of the message, method and character of the King. We are to do what He would do in order to win others to Him. The Colossians practice did the opposite. Their life looked weird, not wonderful. Christian maturity is not magic, and it takes a lifetime for God to perfect us. The Christian life is walking day to day, putting off what is idolatrous and putting on Christ.
