“Our New Clothes in Christ (Part 1)” Ephesians 4:25-28 October 11, 2020 Pastor Tony Felich Sermon Application [file] ----more---- Ephesians 4:21 assuming that you have heard about him and were taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus, [22] to put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, [23] and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, [24] and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness. [25] Therefore, having put away falsehood, let each one of you speak the truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another. [26] Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, [27] and give no opportunity to the devil. [28] Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labor, doing honest work with his own hands, so that he may have something to share with anyone in need. [29] Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear. [30] And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. [31] Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. [32] Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you. We are to live out our new identity in Christ by throwing off our old “clothes” and putting on our new “clothes”.   Off with lies and dishonesty and On with truth-speaking (25)    Off with rage and On with righteous indignation (26-27)    Off with cheating and stealing and On with hard work and generosity (28)
