II. THE WALK OF THE NEW MAN.  v.20-24

In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires. Romans 6:11-12 

  A. What we put off. (22) 

       In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. Matthew 5:16 

  B. What we put in. (23) 

     The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children. Romans 8:16 

     And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.     II Corinthians 3:18 

  C. What we put on.  (24) 

     I delight greatly in the Lord; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of his righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. Isaiah 61:10
