Clothed in Christ

No man need fear sin when he is fully protected against it. And we may always have such protection; it is only when we choose to be unprotected, that sin works its destruction with us. The insulation of safety to the man who must handle live wires of death-dealing voltage is his rubber glove. Clothed in that, his hand has nothing to fear. Our insulation is even more sure. “Put on the armor of light,” writes Paul; and a moment later adds, “Put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ.” Christ himself is our insulation against the currents of death. We may put him on, we may be literally clothed in him. Evil can not touch him: therefore it can not reach one who is in him. No one was ever contaminated by sin except after having broken away from the protecting power and person of the Saviour.—Sunday School Times.
