Soul Arithmetic
In Ephesians 4:17-24 Paul continues to explore the implications of Christ's work and blessings. This time, the corporate implications give way to a more personal, individual message. The culmination is in verse 24 where he describes the equation for authentic Christianity: "and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness." (ESV)
Breaking down the passage into a couple of "equations" provides a memory device:
Soul Arithmetic
Good presuppositions
+ Good logic → Good conclusions
Bad thinking + Bad
walking (habits) → Bad Practice
[(Good teaching –
Bad Habits) + Renewed “in the Spirit of your minds”] + Good
Habits → Authentic Christianity
(We apologize as this recording is less than optimal: it is marred by brief pops and intermittent dropouts of a second or two )
