  7. Use a colon before a list or an explanation that is preceded by a clause that can stand by itself. Think of the colon as a gate, inviting one to go on. EX: There is only one thing left to do now: confess while you still have time. Ex. You will need this equipment for your baseball game: a glove, bat, ball, and cleats. Time (3:45) Bible (Luke 4:3) Greeting of a Business letter (Dear Dr. Ash:) Title: Subtitle (Twilight: Breaking Dawn) Cali works the gate at the Braves game.
