A Well-Dressed Church (Colossians 3:12–17)
In Paul’s previous exhortation, he applied the metaphor of casting off old garments to the practice of killing sin. However, this is only half the picture. In Colossians 3:12–17, he applies the other half of the metaphor: putting on Christ. He applies this to virtues of the heart and virtues of the church. If we have cast off the works of the old man and put on Christ, we will be a well-dressed church.
