Episode notes
Christian Living Starts With New Identity
- The Christian life begins with identity, not isolated problems, so conduct flows from who you are in Christ.
- Martyn Lloyd-Jones explains that New Testament ethics demand transformation of character, not mere reform of behavior, starting from being a new man.
Active Effort Works With The Spirit
- Renewing the mind requires active effort alongside the Spirit; you must listen and apply what the Spirit teaches.
- Lloyd-Jones links 'work out your salvation' with God working in us, stressing cooperative spiritual discipline.
Use Scripture To Renew Your Mind
- Read and study the New Testament to renew your mind because the epistles were written to change thinking.
- Lloyd-Jones instructs believers to acquaint themselves with Scripture, struggle to understand it, and constantly apply it to rewire old thought habits.
