  1. New Man, New Year What does “newness” really mean?

  2. 2 Types of “new” in the New Testament • 3501- neos- new in time, recently come into existence • 2537- kainos- new in quality, distinct from that which is old, worn out • Thayer- as to form- recently made, superior to what it succeeds • Thayer- as to substance- of a new kind, uncommon, unheard of

  3. Usage of kainos in the New Testament And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, “What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.” (Mark 1:27 ESV) And they took him and brought him to the Areopagus, saying, “May we know what this new teaching is that you are presenting? (Acts 17:19 ESV) New teaching? Uncommon, unheard of, a new kind

  4. Usage of kainos in the New Testament Not that we are sufficient in ourselves to claim anything as coming from us, but our sufficiency is from God, who has made us sufficient to be ministers of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life. (2 Corinthians 3:5-6 ESV) New covenant? In quality, superior to what’s succeeded

  5. Usage of kainos in the New Testament …for this is my blood of the (new) covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. (Matthew 26:28 ESV) In the same way also he took the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.” (1 Corinthians 11:25 ESV) New covenant? In quality, superior to what’s succeeded

  6. Usage of kainos in the New Testament “Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will establish a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, (Hebrews 8:8 ESV) Therefore he is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant. (Hebrews 9:15 ESV) New covenant? In quality, superior to what’s succeeded

  7. Usage of kainos in the New Testament But according to his promise we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. (2 Peter 3:13 ESV) Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. (2 Corinthians 5:17 ESV) In quality, superior to what’s succeeded

  8. Then there’s the kainos man • Man- aner- male person • Man- anthropos- race, whole man, every aspect …by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man in place of the two, so making peace,…(Ephesians 2:15 ESV) But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. (1 Peter 2:9 ESV) A new race as opposed to Jew/Gentile races

  9. Then there’s the kainos man • Man- aner- male person • Man- anthropos- race, whole man, every aspect …to put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness. (Ephesians 4:22-24 ESV) New in quality, superior to what it is succeeding New in every aspect, i.e. goals, actions, attitudes, etc.

  10. How shall we be the kainos man • Starts with getting into Christ… • 2 Corinthians 5:17 • Galatians 3:27 • Romans 6:3 • New in quality • Distinct from what is old, worn • Superior to what is succeeded • A new kind • Uncommon, unheard of
