Central Idea: Here is the practical culmination of all that Paul has been driving toward: Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly. It is the gospel that is going to bear real spiritual fruit in the life of a believer (1:6, 10). It is by the transforming power of the gospel that a believer, clothed with Christ, will display compassion, kindness, forgiveness, love, peace, thankfulness, etc. But these are not passive, the command to 'put on...' is a call to the believer to 'see to it' that the gospel be worked out in daily living. Explanations / Questions: On the surface, this passage seemed fairly straight-forward as a series of commands: v.12-13, Put on... compassion, kindness, etc v.14, Put on love v.15, Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts v.15, And be thankful v.16, Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly v.17, And do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus However, this did not satisfy an over-all unity. It seems natural to group the three commands of v.14-15 together in a series and that these together progress from v.12-13 ( above all these put on... makes the progression clear). The progression to v.16, and then to v.17 may be subtle but the common thread is Paul's push to see the gospel bear practical fruit in the lives of these believers (thankfulness being specifically mentioned three times). The gospel is at the root of each of these commands (v.12, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved ; v.13, as the Lord has forgiven you ; v.15, the peace of Christ... to which indeed you were called ; v.16, let the word of Christ (the gospel) dwell.. . v.16,17, Initially, I arced both of these verses as Ac-Mn (mostly out of habit with adverbial participles). But after reflecting more and trying to restate the participles as finite verbs, Ac-Res seems more appropriate for each. Let the word of Christ dwell in you... in that you teach and admonish one another... and sing songs... (by teaching and admonishing one another... and by singing songs...) or with the result that you teach and admonish one another... and sing songs with thankfulness to God. ...do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus... in that you (ought to) give thanks to God the Father through him. (by giving thanks to God the Father through him.) (this seems possible) or with the result that you give thanks to God the Father through him. (better) Question: If the 'Action' clause of a proposition is an imperative, is the secondary clause always 'Purpose' because the result is not yet actual but only potential? I have left these two arcs as Ac-Res because I see the second clause in each as fruit that will indeed come about as a result of the action to be taken. Question: Is it a legitimate distinction between Ac-Res and Ac-Pur that Ac-Res has a emphasis on the Ac (i.e cause - result), while Ac-Pur emphasizes the Pur (i.e. means to an end )?
