Colossians 3:11 |
Next Verse |
Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond [nor] free: but Christ [is] all, and in all.
Note 3 at Col. 3:11: Everything that divides men is done away with in Christ. The external things don't matter anymore. The only thing that is important is being a new creature in Christ (2 Cor. 5:17). God sees us that way, and that's the way we need to see each other (see note 6 at 2 Cor. 5:16, p. 1004).
Note 4 at Col. 3:11: Christ is not in every person. This is speaking of the fact that Christ is in every person who has the "new man" spoken of in verse 10. To Christians, Christ is all that matters and He's in every believer (Rom. 8:9).
