I am going to be writing some life changing Truth here hope you get blessed
UNDERSTANDING THE NEW BIRTH
Born again is not a SECOND birth.

it is a NEW BIRTH..

The believer in Christ therefore, is NOT one who experienced a SECOND birth.

He has experienced A NEW BIRTH..

The believer is one who HAD his EXISTENCE in a state of death but has RECEIVED LIFE in Christ.

Colossians 2:13
And you being DEAD in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he QUICKENED TOGETHER WITH HIM, having forgiven you all trespasses.

Ephesians 2:5
Even when WE WERE DEAD in sins, hath he QUICKENED us together with Christ.

WE WERE DEAD, we existed but had our existence in DEATH.

We received LIFE in him

John 10 :10
.. I am come that they might have LIFE..

NOT that they might have a BETTER LIFE..

john 1:4
In him was life..

See,.... In him was a BETTER life?

No!

What we have received in Christ is NOT a BETTER life, there is no life outside him

The BELIEVER therefore, is NOT an UPGRADED VERSION OF WHOM HE USED TO BE.
.
The BELIEVER is NOT a refurbished version of whom he used to be.
.
HE is a NEW MAN whose IDENTITY is CHRIST
.
See this..
.
2Corinthians 5:17
Therefore, if any man (be) in Christ (he is) a new creature : old things are passed away :behold all things are become new.
.
The words in open and closed brackets are NOT in the original manuscripts, they were added by the translators..
.
So lets read without them :
.
Therefore, if any in Christ, a NEW CREATURE : old things are passed away :all things are become new.
.
What difference does that make??
.
The new creation is CHRIST..
.
The BELIEVER becomes a new creation BY IDENTITY.
......
CHRIST is his IDENTITY..
.
ALL that he has in Christ, he has them by IDENTIFICATION with Christ..
.
Christ is his RIGHTEOUSNESS.
CHRIST is his HOLINESS
HE is justified by his identity in Christ.
.
He is NOT righteous , holy, justified TILL the next time he commits a sin.
.
He is NOT saved TILL the next time he makes a mistake.
.
He is ETERNALLY saved in Christ..
......
...
Hebrews 9:12
Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but BY HIS OWN BLOOD he entered in ONCE into the Holy place, having obtained ETERNAL REDEMPTION for us.
.
Having obtained TEMPORARY REDEMPTION for us
.
No!
.
ETERNAL REDEMPTION!
ETERNAL REDEMPTION!
.
You see, Jesus did NOT enter heaven for us with a RED LIQUID BLOOD!
.
HE entered with his RESURRECTED BODY..
.
HIS RESURRECTED BODY IS THE BLOOD THAT ATONES FOR OUR SINS.
.
We are members of that spiritual body!
.
In him we LIVE, MOVE and have our BEING..
.
Therefore, we LIVE, MOVE and have our BEING IN THE BLOOD OF JESUS WHICH IS THE TOKEN FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF OUR SINS.
.
We are ETERNALLY CLEAN!
.
Eternally righteousness!
.
Eternally Holy!!
.
Eternally forgiven in him!!!
