#3373 – Clothed with Christ

Good morning people who do what God says as they walk with Him

Galatians 3:24-25 NIV So the law was our guardian until Christ came that we might be justified by faith. Now that this faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian.

Jesus Christ far superseded the law.

From the time of Christ on, we are now ‘justified by faith in Christ Jesus’, not merely by ‘adherence to the law’.

As ones who are now alive in Christ, the focus is not on ‘not walking according to the law’, but rightfully on ‘walking in the fullness of Christ Who lives in us’.

In fact, when we walk in Christ, much of what He tells us to do is seen in the law. But there is one major difference, and that is found in the following verses:

Galatians 3:26-27 NIV So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, for all of you who were baptised into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.

Our protection is no longer the law – it’s Christ Himself!

May we all daily ‘put on Christ’ (Romans 13:14) as we live justified and free by faith in Christ Jesus alone!
