GOSPEL NUGGET #511

EX 28:40 “For Aaron’s sons you shall make tunics; you shall also make sashes for them, and you shall make caps for them, for glory and for beauty.

Let's apply this verse to salvation:


The purpose of the tunics or coats, sashes and caps is for glory and for beauty. They are all a picture of Christ. In ourselves, as sinners, we are dishonorable and ugly, spiritually speaking. In God's sight, we can only weave for ourselves "filthy rags" with the righteous deeds that we do.

ISA 64:6 ...all our righteous deeds are like a filthy garment...

But once, we put on Christ, by faith in Him, He becomes our glorious and beautiful garment. He becomes our glory and our beauty before God. 
And so, put on Christ! Trust in Him for salvation and be gloriously and beautifully arrayed in Him in God's sight.
