When we become Christ followers the old man is destroyed and the new man begins to emerge. In Ephesians 4:22-32 Paul describes this new nature: no lying, no sinful anger, no stealing, no corrupt words, no grieving the Holy Spirit, no bitterness and wrath but rather a kindness toward one another. Is the New Man showing in you?

22…that you put off, concerning your
former conduct, the old man which
grows corrupt according to the deceitful
lusts, 23 and be renewed in the spirit of
your mind, 24 and that you put on the
new man which was created according to

3. Ephesians 4:22-32
God, in true righteousness and holiness.
25 Therefore, putting away lying, “Let
each one of you speak truth with his
neighbor,” for we are members of one
another. 26 “Be angry, and do not sin”: do
not let the sun go down on your wrath,

4. Ephesians 4:22-32
27 nor give place to the devil. 28 Let him
who stole steal no longer, but rather let
him labor, working with his hands what is
good, that he may have something to
give him who has need. 29 Let no corrupt
word proceed out of your mouth, but

5. Ephesians 4:22-32
what is good for necessary edification,
that it may impart grace to the hearers.

God, by whom you were sealed for the
day of redemption. 31 Let all bitterness,
wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking

be put away from you, with all malice.
32 And be kind to one another,
tenderhearted, forgiving one another,
even as God in Christ forgave you.

7. Ephesians 4:22,24

former conduct, the old man which

which was created according to God, in
true righteousness and holiness.
