Put on the new man

And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. – Ephesians 4.24

So once we finally decide to get rid of the old man’s rotting carcass we have something else to replace him with.

Put on the new man.

Now this new man is a totally new man like nothing else we have ever experienced before. Whereas the old man was captive to sin and corruption and defiles and all that kind of bad stuff the new man is created

In righteousness
In holiness

This new man sets us apart from what we used to be. The old man is dead and we are raised to walk in newness of life. All things are passed away and all things have become new. Instead of walking in the flesh like the world does we put on the new man and people see God’s holiness and righteousness in us.

When that happens we are going to stand out from the world. It’s this new man, created in Christ Jesus that draws people to Him.

We can carry around that old, dead, rotting carcass and act according to its old whites and lusts and desires, or we can clothe ourselves in the new man with his holiness and righteousness. Which are we going to do today?
