I like the concept of Apostle Paul that Salvation is
something to be worn. Some that is worn is first of all something that provides
us protection from shame. Secondly, wearing the correct clothes at the correct
time helps us to live more efficiently. Thirdly, it is a good testimony to be
dressed well.
