Born again

John 3:6 

What is born of the flesh is flesh, and what is born of the Spirit is spirit.

 

“The new Spirit we receive at the time of regeneration,

will help us see who we should be beyond our degradation.

God will remove our heart of stone and give us a heart of flesh

and through simple obedience … God will do the rest.

 

John 1:12-13

12 But to all who have received him—those who believe in his name—he has given the right to become God’s children 

13 —children not born by human parents or by human desire or a husband’s decision, but by God.

 

All we have to do is receive when He makes Himself known

we should not neglect the gift … that can be our own.

 

He presents the right to become, to all who believe in His Name,

the children in His family never to be the same.

 

Born then outside the will … of the stubborn flesh

not of blood but through Christ … Who gave His very best.
