Put on Christ

11 And do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time ato awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.

Romans 13:12

The night—of evil

is far spent, the day—of consummated triumph over it

is at hand: let us therefore cast off—as a dress

the works of darkness—all works holding of the kingdom and period of darkness, with which, as followers of the risen Saviour, our connection has been dissolved.

and let us put on the armour of light—described at length in Ephesians 6:11-18.
