Presentation transcript:

“If Anyone Is In Christ” 2 Corinthians 5:17 John 3:1-8

“If anyone is in Christ” “New creature” (2 Cor 5:17) “Born again” (John 3:3, 5) “Converted” (Matt 18:3) “Return(ed)” (Acts 3:19) “Alive” (Eph 2:1-2; Col 2:12-14)

“If anyone is in Christ” “New name” (Isa 62:2; cf. Acts 10; 11:26) “Christ(ian)” (Acts 4:12; 26:28; 1 Peter 4:16)

“BORN AGAIN” (John 3:1-6) Is not Holy Spirit baptism (Acts 1:26-2:4; 10:44-46; 11:15-17) – He provided the seed (Luke 8:11; 1 Cor 2:10, 12; John 16:13) – The seed/word of God saves (James 1:18; 1 Peter 1:22-23; James 1:21; Acts 11:13-14)

“BORN AGAIN” (John 3:1-6) This is not physical birth

“BORN AGAIN” (John 3:1-6) The process of the new birth (Mark 16:16; Matt 28:19) – At baptism, a new, spiritual life begins (Col 2:12- 14; Rom 6:4; Gal 3:27)

“BORN AGAIN” (John 3:7-8) The person of the new birth (Acts 8:39) – Spiritual regeneration (Acts 19:5; Eph 2:4-5) – Noticeable change (Gal 5:16, 25)

“BORN AGAIN” (John 3:7-8) “Washing of water with the word” (Eph 5:26) “Washing of regeneration & renewing of the Holy Spirit” (Titus 3:5) – Human and Divine cooperation (Acts 2:38, 41, 47) – Translated into the Kingdom (Col 1:13-14) – Enter the Kingdom of God (John 3:3, 5)

“You MUST be born again” All hope is lost if you don’t. All hope is gained if you will.
