7. You used to live that kind of sinful life.
8. Also get rid of your anger, hot tempers, hatred, cursing, obscene language, and all similar sins.
9. Don’t lie to each other. You’ve gotten rid of the person you used to be and the life you used to live,
10. and you’ve become a new person. This new person is continually renewed in knowledge to be like its Creator.
11. Where this happens, there is no Greek or Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian, uncivilized person, slave, or free person. Instead, Christ is everything and in everything.
