WHAT SHALL I WEAR? The Love of Christ Colossians 3:12-17 Ephesians 3:14-21
Why do YOU dress like that? 1 To communicate who you are 2 To cover up your unpresentable parts 3 To reveal on the outside what’s hidden on the inside
A soldier in complete armour (Ephesians 6) God’s chosen people (Colossians 3:12) What shall I wear?
WHAT SHALL I WEAR? • Something to show who I am • Something to cover over the unpresentable bits • Something to show on the outside what’s hidden on the inside “By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another” John 13:35 “Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins” 1 Peter 4:8 “Her many sins have been forgiven - for she loved much” Luke 7:47
LOVE compassion kindness humility gentleness patience tolerance forgiveness ‘ - binds all together in perfect unity”
“I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge” ↔ ↕
God demonstrates His love for us: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8
Why is he dressed like that? “He made himself nothing …”
When the last trumpet’s voice shall sound, Oh may I then in Him be found … On Christ the solid rock I stand, all other ground is shifting sand! - clothed in His righteousness alone, faultless to stand before His throne!
