Put On

Posted by Pastor Bruce on August 23, 2005

Col 3:9-11 says: Don’t lie to one another. You’re done with that old life. It’s like a filthy set of ill-fitting clothes you’ve stripped off and put in the fire. Now you’re dressed in a new wardrobe. Every item of your new way of life is custom-made by the Creator, with his label on it. All the old fashions are now obsolete. Words like Jewish and non-Jewish, religious and irreligious, insider and outsider, uncivilized and uncouth, slave and free, mean nothing. From now on everyone is defined by Christ, everyone is included in Christ.

We are instructed to put on our designer clothes each day. Not the ones with a “Tommy” tag in the them but the ones with the “God” tag in them.

Dress for success by putting on the “new man”. A new way of doing things and saying things.

Find out what the Bible says and do it. In doing so you will be putting on the new man.

Just as dressing in the morning is important before walking out the door, we as disciples of Christ must be transformed by His words and thoughts in order to do His will during the day.

So burn your ole’ duds and dress up with designer clothes from heaven!

Be fashionable, go with clothes designed by God.
