Romans 6:4-6 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.

Building with SILVER, speaks of the Redemptive Work Of Christ.

When Christ redeems us, he terminates us(what the Bible calls the OLD MAN); and then He supersedes or replaces that old man with himself to form the NEW MAN.

So you would see that when the Bible talks of the OLD MAN it refers to your old nature/old self – that is, natural man in his sinful corrupt state. So it doesn’t matter how youthful or beautiful you think you are, if you don’t have Christ, you are an OLD MAN according to the scriptures and can only produce dead works.

Because of this corruption in  his nature, anything that is produced from the old man is corrupt and hence it’s called dead works and will be burnt down in the end. That is why

GOOD WORKS FROM AN UNREGENERATED MAN CANNOT SAVE HIM. You could feed a whole town, but if you are not born again those works are still dead because they are produced from the old man.

This is why, in 2022 we must preach the gospel to all men everywhere. Do your best to Reach Out to the unsaved and tell them about Jesus; by doing so, you will be helping OLD MEN to become NEW MEN. Hallelujah! Glory to God!

May your 2022 be full of the FRESHNESS and NEWNESS of the Spirit in Jesus name. Amen.
