Q: “Growing up I never had to wear a school unitofrm, but as a believer in Christ I do have a dress code to follow. Once we united with Jesus, He calls us to lay aside our old, sinful nature and put on His character. Colossians 3:12-14 lists the specifics of our new wardrobe: tenderhearted mercy, kindness humidlity, gentleness, patience, and forgiveness. And the perfect finishing touch to our outfit? “Above all, clothe yurself with love, which bubds us all together in perfect harmony”(v 14, NLT). It is only when we wearing the character traits of Jesus that we’ll be able to respond to poeple and circumsstances in ways that honor Him.”

Galatians 3:27 “And all who have united with Christ in baptism have put on Christ, like putting on new clothes.”
