The Wedding Garment is Essentially a Habit of Holiness and Righteousness
Matthew 22:11-13
And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:…


It differs, specifically, from those vanities in which we take so much delight, in the following respects:

1. It is a clothing of humility; no robe of pride to dress up the sinner.

2. It truly corresponds to what the wearer is; no masquerade dress disguising the idle reveller or the stealthy conspirator.

3. It is a habit of the inner as well as of the outer man. A dress of the soul, the everyday costume of the devout and religious spirit, the inner habit which goes together with the outer, orderly, and sober life.

(Morgan Dix, D. D.)
