And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.

Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:

Neither give place to the devil.

Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.

Let no ° corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:

And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God ° for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

New Defender's Study Bible Notes

Ephesians 4:24

4:24 created. The “new man” is an actual new creation (II Corinthians 5:17), a miracle of regeneration performed by the Holy Spirit on a heart and mind receiving Christ by faith as personal Savior and Lord.

Ephesians 4:30

4:30 sealed. The “sealed work” (see Ephesians 1:13) of the Spirit is conclusive, and it cannot be “unsealed,” even though we may “grieve the Spirit” by such sins as noted in these verses.
