Grace of the Elect

Colossians 3:12-13    
12 Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; 13 bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do.

We who are chosen by God are loved by Him and holy in Christ.  Therefore as being in Christ we must put on thankful attitudes and actions to imitate and reflect Him.  These are love actions springing out of our regeneration.  We love God First, but others next as He loves us in mercy and grace.  Because He forgave us everything in merciful grace, how can we do any less among each other?
