Colossians 3:15-16 Part 3 of 3

Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts. 

Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly 
Romans 10:17  Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.

as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom 
Colossians 1:27-28  To them (the Lord's people) God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. He is the one we proclaim, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone fully mature in Christ. 
1 Corinthians 2:6-8  We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature, but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. No, we declare God's wisdom, a mystery that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began. None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 

through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit 
Psalm 47:7  For God is the King of all the earth; sing to him a psalm of praise.
Ephesians 5:19  ... speaking to one another with psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord, ...

singing to God with gratitude in your hearts 
Ephesians 5:20  ... always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
