Clothing styles are important to most people.

We want to be viewed in a certain way. It is interesting to apply adjectives used for jeans to moral values: CASUAL, LOOSE, or FLARED.

We certainly can be impacted by our clothing.

Perhaps that is why the apostle Paul encouraged us to “put on Christ.” The terminology in Romans 13 is the same used for putting on clothing. He writes, “But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts” (Romans 13:14). To “put on” Christ means to wear the mindset of Jesus and to walk in the ways of the Lord. It is much more than wearing a certain type of clothing.
