Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
Por tanto, hagan morir las pasiones terrenales que aún permanecen en su vida: inmoralidad sexual, impureza, lujuria, malos deseos y avaricia (que es básicamente adorar el dinero y las cosas en lugar de Dios).
Debemos eliminar de nuestra vida todos los deseos pecaminosos y la avaricia que nos alejan de Dios.
📚 Contexto Histórico
The letter to the Colossians was written by the Apostle Paul while he was imprisoned, likely in Rome, to a church in Colossae, a city in Asia Minor influenced by Greek philosophy and pagan practices. In this verse, Paul urges believers to reject sinful behaviors rooted in their old way of life, emphasizing that true spiritual resurrection with Christ demands a complete break from earthly vices. These vices were prevalent in the Greco-Roman world, where idolatry often manifested through greed and immorality, challenging early Christians to live distinctly.
