Ephesians 4:22-24

Expanded Bible

²² You were taught to ·leave [put off; lay aside] your old ·self [^Lperson]—to stop living the evil way you lived before. That old self ·becomes worse [is decaying/being corrupted], because ·people are fooled by the evil things they want to do [^Lof the deceitfulness of their desires]. ²³ But you were taught to be made new in ·your hearts [the spirit/attitude of your minds], ²⁴ to ·become [put on; clothe yourself with] the new ·self [^Lperson; or Man; ^Cbecome like Christ]. That new person is created ·to be like God [or in God’s image; ^Laccording to God]—truly good and holy [or in the righteousness and holiness that comes from truth].
