Putting Off the Old Man

17

So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking.

18

They are darkened in their understanding and alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardness of their hearts.

19

Having lost all sense of shame, they have given themselves over to sensuality for the practice of every kind of impurity, with a craving for more.

20

But this is not the way you came to know Christ.

21

Surely you heard of Him and were taught in Him—in keeping with the truth that is in Jesus—

22

to put off your former way of life, your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires;

23

to be renewed in the spirit of your minds;

24

and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
