Does the Bible delineate a distinct Christian lifestyle?

“You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to PUT OFF YOUR OLD SELF, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to PUT ON THE NEW SELF, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.”
—Ephesians 4:22-24.

The Christian is to “put off” the “old self” that resulted from “deceitful desires,” and “put on the new self” that is “created to be like God.” At the new birth we are “created” to be a different kind of person with a distinct Christian lifestyle.

The Bible urges us to continue putting on this new life as the Holy Spirit works to transform our characters:

“Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and LET US RUN WITH PERSEVERANCE THE RACE marked out for us. LET US FIX OUR EYES ON JESUS, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. CONSIDER HIM who endured such opposition from sinful men, SO THAT YOU WILL NOT GROW WEARY AND LOSE HEART.”
—Hebrews 12:1-3.
