Our old self has died with Christ. Our new self is alive in Christ. Our new self will appear with Christ in glory.
Our old self no longer has power over our new self, Christ does. Now, we can live like Christ and no longer live like our old self.

Our Old Self:
-Self-preservation
-Self-protection
-Self-gratification
-Self-fulfillment
-Self-sufficiency
Our old self prioritized self above all. Others became a means to exalt ourselves. Ironically, this life leads to subtle self-destruction.
