God has from the beginning been about the cause of bringing himself glory through a cosmic reconciliation.
ESVas a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth.
A master-plan to exalt his son and align everything under his Lordship, and thereby bringing peace!
This is being brought about right here and now by individual conversions.
God does this through a creative act!
He is not seeking to reform or fix the old world, but he is making a new one.
This text reveal the true nature of a person who is a Christian.
He is a New Self, or man.
He has a New Existence.
Therefore the new man is the new existence in the inaugurated new creation, which was pioneered by the resurrected Mediator as firstfruits
Each person who has run to Christ has entered into a new experience, he’s not what he used to be.
“In Christ, believers have “shed,” stripped off and discarded their old man” EEC
This new existence is the foretaste or what’s to come.
The Church is the collective manifestation of this existence.
How Did We Change?
We Had A Definitive Break With Sin
Repentance is the Beginning
It Is Not an Repair
We Put Off the Old Man
-Meaning Put off as a garment.
Not merely the old deeds, but the old man, the root person, your nature is done, he’s been put away.
-We Cannot clean up the Old Man, we must put him away.
We are to shed the old-creation man.
(This mean we need more than a cleanup, but we need to completely shed ourselves of the old-man, he must die.
Why? He’s corrupt.
The Old man is corrupt and “is being corrupted” through deceitful desires.
Corrupt can mean to destroy or ruin, or perish.
“is perishing”
The drunk is perishing through his deceitful desires, the homosexual is destroying himself through deceitful desires, and so it is with every person.
They are corrupt through deceitful desires.
We Now Continue the Process of Putting off Our Old Man Daily
Application
“This is why the GLC logo is 2 Crosses.”
There are two in Christianity yet they are linked.
Christ’s death, and mine.
We Became New
must be born again
-Renewed in the Inner man by the word
The Spirit of you mind is not psychologically a change merely, but in the inner most part of your being.
This is not merely a change of opinions, but a change of nature.
We now continue the process of renewing our minds daily.
So we have been given a new nature.
-We have put on a new man!
Created in True...: The true Christian has a knowledge of Christ that transforms his life.
It’s a true holiness, sincere and actual, while puffed up knowledge of Jesus is presumptuous and lacks a true understanding and true Change of life.
Righteous: state of being right, acceptable to God
Holiness: or piety, devotion to God.
These are instructing us, and they are the opposite of what the unsaved naturally know and learn.
Jesus teaches us holiness.
If you don’t walk after holiness, you haven’t been taught by Jesus.
How Does This Happen
It’s Called Learning of Christ
By Hearing of Him in the Gospel.
This is the content of the teaching of Jesus.
Something in me begins to change, I no longer view sin the way I used to, I now see Christ in greater light.
By being taught in him.
To learn Christ is to know him.
Jesus Christ is the subject of the Christian life.
His person, his voice, his teachings are the course.
Hearing Christ in the Word
