But you did not learn Christ in this way, if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught in Him, just as truth is in Jesus, that, in reference to your former manner of life, you

lay aside the old self, which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit, and that you be

renewed in the spirit of your mind, and put on the new self, which in the likeness of God has been created in

righteousness and holiness of the truth. (Ephesians 4:20-24 NASB)
