The Old man
Old man is crucified says the book of Romans and our body of sin (old man) is destroyed! This plainly means that the old man is dead and the new man or the new creation is the only man that remains. Just as the new man is a spirit man so the old man was our old spirit man. Now the old man, who was the inner unregenerate spirit man, is dead because when the Holy Spirit came into your spirit and made it alive, that old unregenerate man died or ceased to be. You have a spirit in you and the Holy Spirit is now living in your spirit. You are not the same person.
Friend, you are righteous, you are made worthy, you have been made family, powerful and you have a new heart.
