<p> See Man , | <p> [[A]] term used in the [[N.T.]] to express a moral condition or order of man which has been superseded for the [[Christian]] by the introduction of the new man. "Our old man <i> has been </i> crucified with him [Christ], that the body of sin might be annulled, that we should no longer serve sin." Romans 6:6 . The old man is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, and the Christian is appealed to as <i> having </i> put off the old man. Ephesians 4:22; Colossians 3:9 . If he has learnt this in his soul, "as the truth is in Jesus," he has to maintain consistency with it, and to act in the character of the <i> new man, </i> which he has put on, and in which [[Christians]] are one in Christ Jesus. </p> | ||

<p> ( παλαιός , <i> ''''' palaiós ''''' </i> , "old," "ancient"): [[A]] term thrice used by Paul ( Romans 6:6; Ephesians 4:22; Colossians 3:9 ) to signify the unrenewed man, the natural man in the corruption of sin, i.e. sinful human nature before conversion and regeneration. It is theologically synonymous with "flesh" ( Romans 8:3-9 ), which stands, not for bodily organism, but, for the whole nature of man (body and soul) turned away from God and devoted to self and earthly things. </p> <p> The old man is "in the flesh"; the new man "in the Spirit." In the former "the works of the flesh" ( Galatians 5:19-21 ) are manifest; in the latter "the fruit of the Spirit" ( Galatians 5:22 , Galatians 5:23 ). One is "corrupt according to the deceitful lusts"; the other "created in righteousness and true holiness" ( Ephesians 4:22-24 the King James Version). See also [[Man]] , [[Natural]]; [[Man]] , New . </p> | |||
