Colossians 3:14
And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
In the third chapter of Colossians there are many things that the apostle Paul has told the saints to do towards one another, but verse 14 though tells us to put on charity. This is thinking about others first, considering them before ourselves. We are to put this on through the reading of the scriptures. Human nature is to think about ourselves. The middle letter of the word “sin” is “I”. This is the problem with the human race we want to do what we need to, to take care of ourselves. We don’t think about others first, but Christ thought about us in eternity past when he decided to come to earth and die on the cross for our sins. A human race that did everything against what he asked them to do, he still LOVED you and I enough to die for us. When you think of others, think of them the way Christ thought of you and you will see that our attitude towards others will change. We will then see that this is the completeness that the Lord wants the members of the body to have with one another.
Rejoicing in Grace,
