3 Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. 3 For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is your[ m] life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.
Colossians 3:23-4:6. 23 Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, 24 since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. 25 Anyone who does wrong will be repaid for their wrongs, and there is no favoritism.
Here in Colossians, the “inheritance” is specifically said to be the reward, and thus Colossians 3:24 helps explain difficult verses such as Galatians 5:21 and Ephesians 5:5, which say that flagrant sinners will not inherit, or have an inheritance in, the Kingdom of God, meaning they will not have a reward.
If you read Colossians 3:22-24 you'll see that it is saying this to the slaves. 22 "Slaves, obey your earthly masters in everything; and do it, not only when their eye is on you and to curry their favor, but with sincerity of heart and reverence for the Lord" So it seems you may not always have a choice in the work you do.
