除舊換新 Take Off the Old and Put On the New
我們清楚蒙恩得救的那一天也是屬靈爭戰開始的那一天，因為二種生命在裡面，舊的生命(老我)與新的生命(新我)在爭戰，我們要除舊換新，要仰望十架，靠主的寶血，繼續除去舊的生命，追求活出新的生命。
There is constant conflict between our old and new selves, for a spiritual battle began the day we were saved. This week, Rev. Jeremiah Cheung shows us how we can walk as Christians: by taking off the old and putting on the new to live out this New Humanity.
Read Today’s Scripture Passage
Ephesians 4:17-24
Life Group Discussion Guide
1. Start with a prayer
2. Engage one another (15-30 mins)
- During the pandemic, many people have rearranged/decluttered their homes. Share some items you have chosen to give away or remove from your home.
3. Engage the mind (15-20 mins)
- Read the passage. What are the characteristics of the old life?
- What are the characteristics of the new life?
- What caused the change/transformation from old ways to the new way of living? Why is it important to put off the old life and put on the new life?
- Share how Jesus has transformed you since you decided to follow and obey Him? (Note to leaders: Before the meeting, ask a few people who can share to give them enough time to prepare.)
4. Engage the heart (15-20 mins)
- Reflect and share: What old ways am I still living/doing? What is God teaching me through today’s passage?
5. Engage the hands (15-20 mins)
- What specific actions can you take to obey Jesus and to put on the new self?
6. Engage with God in prayer (20-30 mins)
- Thank God for sending Jesus to be our Savior. Through Him, we can have a new life with Him.
- Ask the Holy Spirit to help us identify, repent, and put off the sins in our heart; to rely on God’s Spirit, not on ourselves, to give us the power to pursue and put on the new self as he has designed us to be.
