Paul now applies the calling to live worthy of Christ by putting of the old self and putting on the new self to the sphere of relationships.

Thus, husband-wife, parent-child, and master-servant relationships are transformed through Christ as His people live by the Holy Spirit in the attitude of mutual submission.
