When clothing yourself with Christ

“But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.” (Rom. 13:14 NKJV)

The phrase put on Christ means to figuratively clothe oneself with the Lord Jesus Christ to reveal the glory of God to the world. 

Put on the new self to be like God 

“…and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.” (Eph. 4:24 ESV)

“and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.” (Col. 3:20 ESV)

Therefore…

“For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.” (Gal. 3:27 NIV)

“…lay aside the old self, which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit, and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and put on the new self, which in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth.” (Eph. 4:22-24)

“Do not lie to one another, since you laid aside the old self with its evil practices, and have put on the new self who is being renewed to a true knowledge according to the image of the One who created him.” (Col. 3:9-10)

“God wants to produce the character of Christ in our lives because he knows that the more we become like him, the more fulfilled we will be.” - Rick Warren

“When it comes to Christ, you’ve got to do the same. Call him crazy, or crown him as king. Dismiss him as a fraud, or declare him to be God. Walk away from him, or bow before him, but don’t play games with him.” -  Max Lucado
