and has been brought into the family of Christ
Where s/he begins to desire the things of the Spirit
And as well, pursue things that are of eternal value.

Just as the above verse has mandated us to put off the old man which is corrupt, we must constantly renew our mind with God's Word.
It's God's will that mankind may be saved and be counted about His body.
We are brought into this eternal family by the action of faith. For those who receive Him and believe in His name, the Scripture says that He gave them power to be called the Sons and Daughters of God. (John 1:12)
As people who are called into this newness of life (neglecting the old man), we must learn to walk in holiness and bear the fruits of righteousness - not yielding to temptation and sin but rather, consolidating to divine calling and vision.
Ephesians Chapter 4 verse 24 added:
And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
We must place our desire on that which has eternal value, setting our minds on things that are above, for everything in the world will pass away.

It's in this newness of life that there's abundance of joy and peace. We grow in the experience of His glory as He expouse His glorious ways unto us.
Colossians 3:10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
It is in this regard that we obtain the gift of eternal life by which we are saved.
