A Christian ultimately is not trying to lead a godly life simply because immorality is terrible. A Christian leads a godly life because he or she is infused, his consciousness is infused, with the glorious facts of who you are. Put on the new self means remember your identity. Remind yourself of who you are now that you’re a Christian. That is the secret. That is the principle, and that makes the Christianity very different than all other ethical systems.
When we accept Christ and are welcomed into the family of God, we are essentially playing for a new team! Stepping out into the same life but with a different agenda.4:24 and to put on the new self...
In appealing for proper Christian conduct Paul says that Christians are to put off the conduct associated with their former life apart from Christ and put on a new pattern of behavior, just as they might put on a new dress or suit.
Would you like to exchange your old life for a new life? Exchange the old marriage for a new marriage? Exchange the old habit routine for a new routine? Exchange the old cantankerous spirit for a new perspective? Exchange all the fear for a lot of hope?
Why don't you come to Christ today?
