“Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.”
Colossians 3:12-14 KJV
As an elect of God, holy and beloved, we are a new creature walking in newness of life. Our new attire of being in Christ, is compassion & mercy, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, patience, not getting angry & impatient with people, not quarrelsome but forgiving, and being loving. Mercy is connected with our intestines and humbleness with the mind! It’s quite a checklist - and if we are not able to put on these effectively, let’s ask the Holy Spirit to help us. This is important - because we tend to be in condemnation when we fail. But the qualification of being in Christ is the Blood of Jesus Christ that as we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with each other and the Blood of Jesus Christ cleanses is from every sin. How glorious is our Lord! Let’s put on our new attire today!
