the clean shirt

In the New Testament we read, “For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.” With our baptism we symbolically put on Christ.

Put Ye On the Lord Jesus Christ  

By Sister J. Anette Dennis

Galatians 3:27

This reminded me an object lesson a missionary did for us years ago. Elder Minert was teaching about baptism. To keep it short, baptism and repentance are taking off a dirty shirt and putting on the clean shirt. We put on the clean life of Christ.
