Ephesians 4:17-24

17So I say this, and insist in the Lord, that you no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking.

18They are darkened in their understanding, being alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardness of their hearts.

19Because they are callous, they have given themselves over to indecency for the practice of every kind of impurity with greediness.

20But you did not learn about Christ like this,

21if indeed you heard about him and were taught in him, just as the truth is in Jesus.

22You were taught with reference to your former way of life to lay aside the old man who is being corrupted in accordance with deceitful desires,

23to be renewed in the spirit of your mind,

24and to put on the new man who has been created in God’s image – in righteousness and holiness that comes from truth.
