What does it mean to be "Born-Again"???
Sinners:
The Bible says that although we are born from our mother's
womb, this alone is not enough for us to see heaven. From the moment of conception
we have a "sinful nature"--that means that we tend to do what is
wrong quite easily. We think of ourselves and our interests, we are angered,
we fight,
we lie, we ignore God, we lust in our hearts, we speak unkindly to each other,
and we complain even though "we have all received one blessing after
another" [John 1:16]
Savior:
But Jesus was born a man and didn't do any of these things. He died, even
though He did no wrong, and He rose again, defeating death and sin's effects.
"He died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves..."
[2 Corinthians 5:15]
Saved:
When we ask Jesus to come into our heart, and repent [turn away and confess]
our sins, His Spirit---The Holy Spirit--comes into us. This is being "born
again". We were all born physically. When we receive God's Spirit, then we
are born spiritually...Born Again!!
