Two Men& a Truck

TWO MEN: OLD MAN & NEW MAN

Ephesians 4:22-24 You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self (OLD MAN), which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self (NEW MAN), created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.

THE OLD MAN

Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

Galatians 5:24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

THE NEW MAN Romans 3:24 (AMP) [All] are justified and made upright and in right standing with God, freely and gratuitously by His grace (His unmerited favor and mercy), through the redemption which is [provided] IN CHRIST JESUS.

Ephesians 2:6 And God raised us up with Christ and seated us WITH HIM in the heavenly realms IN CHRIST JESUS
