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.
