Adorn the doctrine of God

...showing all good faith so that they will adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in every respect (Titus 2:10c NASB)

This is a really interesting verse. It is addressed to servants - of which each of us are to Christ. Servants are to adorn the doctrine of God. The word translated "adorn" is Strongs 2885 meaning "to put in order, embellish, decorate. Metaphorically equivalent to to embellish with honor, gain honor." (Strongs, Thayer) 

We are to wear the doctrine of Christ and by doing so, embellish Christ with honor. Paul writes:

Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. (1 Corinthians 5:20 NASB )

The job of an ambassador is to represent his country well. He acts in a way that brings honor to his homeland - not shame. 

Abraham was aware of his heavenly homeland and his temporary time on earth.

Hebrews says, By faith he (Abraham) lived as an alien in the land of promise, as in a foreign [land], dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, fellow heirs of the same promise;for he was looking for the city which has foundations, whose architect and builder is God. (Hebrews 11:9-10 NASB)

We too are living in a foreign land. We are residents of heaven, dwelling on earth for a short time - only a human lifetime.

Peter writes: Beloved, I urge you as aliens and strangers to abstain from fleshly lusts which wage war against the soul. (1 Peter 2:11)

Brothers and sisters, let us stand strong against things that would war against our soul, against things that would bring shame to our homeland and our Creator, and let us adorn the doctrine of God.
