Colossians 3:3-4 — A belief in the return of Jesus Christ is definitional to the Christian faith and it’s what Paul talks about in the second half of this text. His return is the consummation of His redemptive work and the end of our salvation. When He appears in glory so will we. Our everlasting life, now veiled in this sinful flesh, will burst forth as we rise again and our bodies are forever changed. “Even so, come Lord Jesus!”
