Colossians 3:17-4:1, 1 Timothy 2:13, 1 Corinthians 11:3, 1 Corinthians 13:4-8, Colossians 2:9-10, Romans 12:2

In the last part of Colossians 3, Paul gives instructions regarding our relationships with others – particularly our family members, our employees, and our employers. Over the years there has been a great deal of misunderstanding about this passage – so much so that preachers often simply skip over it to avoid controversy. However, it is really quite simple to understand these instructions. They reflect God’s sovereign design for human society. Jesus is head of all. If men, women, and children simply submit ourselves under His authority and let all our words and actions reflect His lordship over them, the divinely ordained order for our human relationships falls right into line.
