And you were at one time strangers and enemies in your minds as expressed through your evil deeds,

Keep thinking about things above, not things on the earth,

Let the peace of Christ be in control in your heart (for you were in fact called as one body to this peace), and be thankful.

Let no one who delights in humility and the worship of angels pass judgment on you. That person goes on at great lengths about what he has supposedly seen, but he is puffed up with empty notions by his fleshly mind.

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and exhorting one another with all wisdom, singing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, all with grace in your hearts to God.
