12. Ephesians 4:17-24 The New You + PDF Teacher's Notes

Introduction: ESV 2 Corinthians 5:17 . . . if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.

Overview: Ephesians 4:17 begins a new section about our total transformation in Christ. It is about renewal. This section runs from 4:17 all the way to 6:9. First Paul gave general renewal admonitions to everyone, followed by renewal admonitions to specific groups (husbands, wives, fathers, children, slaves, masters). 4:17 goes back to the original thought started in 4:1.
