Yesterday, we ended Romans 13 with a vivid description of the Christian life:
“Put on the Lord Jesus Christ.”
If you belong to Jesus, something radical has changed with you: Christ is in you, and you are in Christ. God is at work within you, giving you both the desire and the power to do what pleases Him (Philippians 2:12).
We are called to live outwardly in line with what God has already made true of us inwardly. We are called to pursue holiness and righteousness through the power He supplies.
That’s why Paul says there are things we need to “cast off.” Some attitudes, habits, and behaviors no longer fit who we are (see our text). But the Christian life isn’t only about what we take off. It’s about who we put on!
Paul makes clear that this isn’t passive: “make no provision for the flesh.” Don’t arrange your life to make it easier to feed the very sins you’re asking God to help you overcome. Don’t just fight temptation when it comes. Stop supplying it beforehand.
The day is at hand. We belong to the light. So this week, ask yourself this question about your attitudes, relationships, habits, and choices:
Does this look like Jesus?
Put on Jesus. Live outwardly as the person God has already made you inwardly. And reach out to others in your Kgroup for accountability and deeper community.
