Old Man.

“That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;” Ephesians‬ ‭4:22‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Put off the former conversation. Put off the old man. When you are in Christ, He has given you the power and authority to put off the old habits, lusts, addictions, patterns, cycles, and shortcomings. You have the choice to put off the old things. When you are in Christ — the old corrupt man (the former nature) is dead and buried — and now you are free in Christ. 

The Amplified Version expounds on Ephesians‬ ‭4:22‬ ‭AMPC‬‬ in the following manner, “Strip yourselves of your former nature [put off and discard your old unrenewed self] which characterized your previous manner of life and becomes corrupt through lusts and desires that spring from delusion;” Strip yourself from the former nature. Discard the old habits and old way of living. Choose to submit to Christ. Follow His Word. Follow His Way. 

Ephesians‬ ‭4:22‬ ‭NLT‬‬ declares, “Throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception.” Throw out the old ideals and framework. Throw away corrupt and perverse thinking. Throw out the contaminated ways of the world and surrender every aspect of your life over to God and let Christ set you free.
