NEW HABITS FOR OLD II

A. Why Spiritual Growth Is Impossible Without Discipline.

"On the other hand, discipline yourself for the purpose of godliness; for bodily discipline is only of little profit, but godliness is profitable for all things, since it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come." (1 Tim. 4:7-8)

B. Practice Makes Perfect. (How To Develop New Habits.)

1. Identify the old habit.

" . . .lay aside the old self, which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit," (Eph. 4:22)

2. Identify the lie that fuels the old habit.

". . .and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind," (Eph. 4:23)

3. Replace the old habit with a new habit.

". . .and put on the new self, which in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth." (Eph. 4:24)
