Ephesians 4:24 says, “…put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.” Romans 6 is a great chapter that explains what happens when we accept Jesus as our Savior.

Verse 4 says that we were buried with Him in baptism into death. Then just as Jesus was raised from the dead, “…even so we also should walk in newness of life.” Verse 6 says, “…our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin.”  

We were set free from satan’s slave block of sin. Yet at the moment of salvation our mind was not instantly renewed. Ephesians 4:23 Amplified says, “And be constantly renewed in the spirit of your mind (having a fresh mental and spiritual attitude).” Renewing our mind is a moment by moment discipline.
