NOTES
When you put on Christ, you must cast away your old self just as you would an old pair of shoes.
Romans 13:13-14
Has the old man or woman been cast out and taken on a new creature?
If your not changing the old person to a new person, you just end up wet.
Ephesians 4:22-25
One professed Christian acting out can affect the entire Christian body as a whole.
Christians should always be praying and encouraging one another to help fix and get rid of their problems.
Ephesians 6:10-16
If you wear Christ as you are suppose to wear Christ, it will help you and protect you during your battles.
Are you confident in your armor of Christ, just as you are in your new outfit.
2 Peter 1:5-8
You must have faith, virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience, godliness, brotherly kindness, and charity.
If you don’t have these things you will not have the knowledge of God.
Be careful of how you use your mouth and show your attitude. Just because you commit to being baptized and singing in church, it doesn’t make you a Christian.
If your attitude is not in God as a new creature, YOU’RE NOT A CHRISTIAN!
How far do you think you would have made it in the crucifixion of Jesus Christ to stay faithful?
