THIRD “OLD THINGS HAVE PASSED AWAY”

The form of the Greek word translated “have passed” means an action that has occurred at some POINT in the past.

Whatever these old things are, the apostle declares that when someone becomes a Christian, these old things have departed;

-they have left the building;

-they have passed away.

-They are no longer present doing that which they had always done in choice-making-realm of the Christian.

What are these “old things” that have passed?

Being that said and I'm not trying to argue or anything I just want clarity because I'm in a horrible situation and I want to honor the Lord.

If old things passed away wouldn't that include vows? Promises? Sind?

Like when you become born again all the vows and covenants you make with demons unknowing and knowing don't they go away when you renounce and repent from them?

Why is marriage any different . I just want clarity.
