Bible Question (short): What is the new self? |
Question (full): Joe, The only thing that you said about Eph 4:24 is this: 2. The new self is to be put on, which assumes that it hasn't been already. I am left to conclude then that you think that the new self gets put on when we die. The greek supports that this is a one-time act, not a process of sanctification. Seems funny that Paul would tell us to do this one time act but we have no choice over when we do it. Why would Paul tell us to do something that we cannot do? If it is a one-time act that we put on the new self sometime during our physical life, when do we do this? When we become righteous and holy enough? You still have not addressed my questions concerning this verse. Do you agree that the new self is created (not being created) in God's likeness and that it is righteous and holy?
