New Paint


When a person gets ready to repaint, do they paint over cracked or bubbled paint? No. To do so would cause the new paint to chip off with the old. The old paint should first be scraped off so that the new paint adheres to a clean surface.

Similarly, we do not try to hide old personality traits, ignoring the need to remove them from our mind and heart. Instead, we make the effort to rid ourselves of our old fleshly ways so that we can apply the new coat of Christian personality and have it really cling to us.
