Fr Henri Nouwen
Being
Clothed in Christ
Being a believer means being clothed in Christ. Paul says: "Every
one of you that has been baptised has been clothed in
Christ" (Galatians 3:26) and "Let your armour
be the Lord Jesus Christ" (Romans 13:14). This being "clothed in
Christ" is much more than wearing a cloak that covers our misery. It
refers to a total transformation that allows us to say with Paul: "I have
been crucified with Christ and yet I am alive; yet it is no longer I, but
Christ living in me" (Galatians 2:20).
Thus, we are the living Christ in the world. Jesus, who is God-made-flesh,
continues to reveal himself in our own flesh. Indeed, true salvation is
becoming Christ.
