Are New Year’s Resolutions biblical? How do we become the people of God? (Colossians 2:20-3:17)

The context of Paul’s letter to the Colossians is false teaching against the Trinity and the gospel

In order to refute these mistakes, Paul emphasizes the deity of Jesus and justification by faith in Jesus Christ

If with Christ you died, why submit to regulations? (Colossians 2:20)

If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above (Colossians 3:1)

Put to death… (Colossians 3:5-11)

Put on then… (Colossians 3:12-17)

Resolutions indeed have the appearance of wisdom, but they are of no value in stopping the indulgence of the flesh (Colossians 2:23)

Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith (Colossians 2:6-7)
