Ephesians 4:17-24
The New Life
17 Now this I say and atestify in the Lord, bthat you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, cin the futility of their minds. 18 They aare darkened in their understanding, balienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to ctheir hardness of heart. 19 They ahave become callous and bhave given themselves up to sensuality, greedy to practice every kind of impurity. 20 But that is not the way you alearned Christ!— 21 assuming that ayou have heard about him and bwere taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus, 22 to aput off byour old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through cdeceitful desires, 23 and ato be renewed in the spirit of your minds, 24 and to put on athe new self, bcreated after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.
