All of us used to live that way, following the passions and desires of our evil nature. We were born with an evil nature, and we were under God's anger just like everyone else.
Ephesians 2:3 speaks about our actual human nature before God gave us a new life in Christ. Anybody who gives their life to Jesus, according to 2 Corinthians 5:17, “is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!” The choice, however, to become this new creation or to remain the old creature is ours to make. The only way to escape from the lustful desires of our old evil nature is to choose the new nature offered to us by our Lord Jesus Christ. What kind life are you leading right now? Are you succumbing to your old self and your old lustful desires or have you chosen to become a new creature? You won't have to look far to find what will likely be some obvious evidence.
