Clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ


Clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ

Rom 13:14

14 Rather, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not think about how to gratify the desires of the flesh.[c]

Gal 6:8

Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.

Col 2:11

11 In him you were also circumcised with a circumcision not performed by human hands. Your whole self ruled by the flesh[b] was put off when you were circumcised by[c] Christ, 

12 having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.

We learn the following from the above verses

1)  Clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not think about how to gratify the desires of the flesh

2)  Our whole self ruled by the flesh[b] was put off when we were circumcised by[c] Christ
