A new life is expected from new creatures',

"We should walk in newness of life." Romans 6:4

All who possess Christ—possess a new nature.

They are brought under new obligations

They are expected to keep new objects in view. 

They should walk as influenced by new principles

The free grace, holy truth, and divine power of God—should lead them to newness of life.

They should walk by new rules—no longer following customs and ways of the world.

They should walk according to . . .
God's Word,
the Saviour's golden rule,
and His holy example.

The love of God, 
gratitude to God, 
and zeal for His glory
—should be the motives from which they act.

To honour God, 
to enjoy His presence, 
to exalt Jesus, 
to benefit others, 
to prove the power and purity of their principles,
to evidence their faith and love, 
should be the ends they have constantly in view.

A new life is expected from new creatures. Without it our religion is vain, and our profession a falsehood. 

Beloved, do we walk in newness of life?
