Ephesians 4

The Christian's Walk

Verse 17 - So this I say, and affirm together with the Lord, that you
walk no longer just as the Gentiles also walk, in the futility of their mind,

Verse 18 - being darkened in their understanding, excluded from the life of God
because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardness of their heart;

Verse 19 - and they, having become callous, have given themselves
over to sensuality for the practice of every kind of impurity with greediness.

Verse 20 - But you did not learn Christ in this way,

Verse 21 - if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught in Him,
just as truth is in Jesus,

Verse 22 - that, in reference to your former manner of life, you lay aside the old self ,
which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit,

Verse 23 - and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind,

Verse 24 - and put on the new self, which in the likeness of God
has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth.
