"What else is repentance but a serious attack on he old man, that his lusts be restrained, and an entering into a new life? Therefore, if you live in repentance, you walk in Baptism...For in Baptism are given grace, the Spirit, and power to suppress the old man, so that the new man may come forth and become strong."
-- Large Catechism 4:75-76
