A Colossian Crystal
Clearly modern-day applications
supporting chapter four of Colossians
would direct verse one to our fellow man
in places where slavery has been banned.
Ministers might share this word of caution…
Neighbors, regard your fellow Colossian
as God has regarded you - with justice
with the goal that they can fully trust us.
“Trustice" a lifestyle the Christian employs
dealing with employees, stubborn schoolboys,
any client would profit from this tool -
a sharper view of our Lord’s Golden Rule.
Jesus’ teachings begin to crystalize
when forgiven sinners can realize
our Savior redeems us to think like Him.
His promise: we will not sink if we swim.
"Masters, grant to your slaves justice and fairness,
knowing that you too have a Master in heaven.”
Colossians 4:1
