The term 'born again' is not a religious cliche which inscribe turning over a new leaf. When you ask some Christ followers how they know they are born, some simply say, "I know I'm born again, because the bad things I used to do, I do them no more. I've changed my ways, and now, I behave differently." The act of Being born again is much more greater that. What You receive, when you are born again is a completely brand new life. There' no such thing as "The Bad things I used to do, I do them is dead. He doesn't exist anymore.
When you accepted Christ into your life, something actually happened: your spirit was recreated. You were born of the word of God and of the spirit of God. You now have the life, nature and character of God. And when a man has the life, nature and character of God, he can only live like God. So being born again is actually receiving the God-nature; becoming an associate of the God-kind.
Note; your oldlife or nature isn't suspended; it's dead; you've come up a new man; a new species of being; one that never existed before; one without a past. In the presence of God, everything you were before you were born again, and everything you did before you were born again gas no record. This isn't a promise. This is a statement of fact in the world.
If you're ignorant of this, you could be struggling with your past or with the sins you committed before you were born again. This, invariably could make you ineffective in the things of God. No; you're not a sinner. You're the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, because you're born again.
#Walk in the consciousness of your righteousness, a new life in Christ.
