a call to die: the old and new self

a call to die:  the old and new self by ric Gustafson


Colossians 3: 5, 9-10 talks about the old and new self. Our old self is our human sinful nature. Some people think that when you convert to Jesus that the old nature completely goes away. That is not true. We will always struggle with our old self. When we give our life to Jesus, wonderful things happen to us. We are forgiven, we have eternal life  and the Holy Spirit inside of us guides us.
The Apostle Paul tells us to fight and kill those sins dead. When we put on the new self, we do it in the image of God our Creator.
