A FURTHER WORD
In Ephesians 4:20-24, Paul urges us to put off our old self and to put on the new self. To put off the old self is to deal with sin patterns in our lives. To put on the new self is to develop Christlike character traits such as love, compassion, generosity, and forgiveness.
The Pursuit of Holiness deals largely with putting off the old self —dealing with sin in our lives. A sequel to this book is available that focuses on putting on the new self —the development of Christian character. It is just as important that we put on the new self as it is that we put off the old. Therefore, I encourage you to consider the sequel book, The Practice of Godliness. It is available at www.NavPress.com.
