The Bible says when we trust Christ as our savior, "the old has gone, the new is here!" But what does that mean for our practical, everyday living?
When you start your free 14-day trial membership with Bible Gateway Plus, you'll receive the link to download You Are A New Creation, the free 5-Day PDF Bible study that will help you understand the scriptural concept of regeneration. Here's how pastor and author Max Lucado describes it:
“[Regeneration] is more than a removal of sin. It is a deposit of power. It is as if your high-mileage, two-cylinder engine was extracted, and a brand-new Ferrari engine was mounted in your frame. God removed the old motor, caked and cracked and broken with rebellion and evil, and replaced it with a humming, roaring version of himself. He embedded within you the essence of Christ. ‘Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!’”

Ephesians 4:22-24 describes the stark contrast between old self behavior and new creation living
One of the insightful resources included in your Bible Gateway Plus membership is The Jesus Bible, which offers the following commentary on this passage: “According to the apostle Paul, nonbelievers walk in futility (v. 17), have darkened understanding (v. 18), are “separated from the life of God” (v. 18), are ignorant (v. 18), are impure (v. 19) and are “full of greed” (v. 19). Not so with a child of God. These descriptions apply to the believer’s “old self” and have nothing to do with Christ (vv. 21–22). The believer’s status has completely shifted—from old to new, from death and blindness to life and light…"
