What does the Bible say about the old man and the new man in Christians?
Answered in 1 source
The Bible teaches that believers experience a conflict between their old sinful nature and their new nature in Christ (Romans 7:15-25).
The conflict between the old man and the new man in believers is a significant theme in Scripture, illustrating the spiritual struggle that occurs after someone is born again. In Romans 7:15-25, the Apostle Paul explains the frustration of wanting to do good but being hindered by sin residing in him, depicting the ongoing battle between the remnants of sin (the old man) and the new life given through Christ (the new man). This struggle highlights the reality that while Christians have been declared righteous and made new creatures in Christ, they still wrestle with their sinful inclinations until the day they are fully glorified.
