Clean out the old leaven so that you may be a new lump, just as you are in fact unleavened. For Christ our Passover also has been sacrificed. I Corinthians 5:7
As yeast shapes a lump of dough, so we all have a spiritual leaven that shapes our soul. Our old leaven leaves us with malice and wickedness. When we become Christians, we clean out the old leaven, and allow Christ to be the new leaven that shapes our lives and behavior. Trading our old leaven for Christ is apparent by our behavior. The way we think, walk, and talk spiritually, should show everyone we are shaped by Christ in us.
