Ephesians 4:17-24

Putting Off the Old Man

17
This I say therefore and testifie in the Lord, that yee hencefoorth walke not as other Gentiles walke, in vanitie of their minde,
18
Hauing their vnderstanding darkened, and being strangers from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardnesse of their heart:
19
Which being past feeling, haue giuen themselues vnto wantonnesse, to woorke all vncleannesse, euen with griedinesse.
20
But yee haue not so learned Christ,
21
If so be yee haue heard him, and haue bene taught by him, as the trueth is in Iesus,
22
That is, that yee cast off, concerning the conuersation in time past, that olde man, which is corrupt through the deceiueable lustes,
23
And be renued in the spirit of your minde,
24
And put on ye new man, which after God is created vnto righteousnes, and true holines.
