Put On Christ

The phrase ‘put on Christ’ reflects putting on a change of garments.

As followers of Our Lord and Our Friend we need to lay aside the dirty garment of sin. And put on the new clothes of ‘Righteousness’ received by faith.

Galatians 3 Verse 27: “For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ”.

The significance of this could be understood by the Galatians because when the Roman child came of age, he took off the childhood garments and put on the toga of the adult citizen.

We believers in Christ we are not just a ‘child of God’. He or she is also a ‘son of God’

Galatians 3 verse 25 and 26:

V25: “But since that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian.”

V26: “for you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.”

The believer has an adult status before God, so why go back into childhood of the law.

Put on Christ and His fullness and allow your life to be forever changed.

God Bless.
