Colossians 3 v 12 - 14 - Holy Wardrobe

Okay so maybe we don't need to look like Ned Flanders, or wear socks with sandals to look like a Christian. But Paul does have something to say on what we should wear. 


v12
We are the elect, God has chosen us, and he loves us. So we should be clothed with mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Some of these are from the fruits of the spirit back in Galatians, so Paul is rally reiterating here what we should be like. So, obv it's not saying to not wear clothes or anything, but it's more important that your inner qualities are ones that reflect God, not your inside qualities. 


v13
Forgive others, as God has forgiven others! (yeah yeah . .we're not God . . .but we have God to help . . .). We're not all good perfect people, we all faults people have to put up with, and ones that we have to put up with. I guess though, if it's something that someone is doing wrong spiritually, you have the right to try and intervene and encourage them. But if it's a fault of theirs, we need to forgive. From the heart, so we have completely forgiven them. By not forgiving people, there's a lot of anger and bitterness involved, and that's just not good. And tbh, we do soooooo much against God and he still forgives us, so we should be able to reciprocate that.


v14
Most importantly, clothe yourself with Love! it's the most important for unity and stuff :) love yourself, love others, love God!
