What does it mean to be born again in the Christian faith?
Answered in 1 source
Being born again refers to the spiritual regeneration that God performs in the hearts of believers, giving them new life in Christ.
The concept of being born again is a transformative act of God where believers receive new life through His grace. As highlighted in Ezekiel 16, when God says, 'Live' to His people, it signifies the divine initiative in our spiritual awakening. This regeneration is not something we achieve, but it is bestowed upon us by God’s sovereign will. Ephesians 2:4-5 further clarifies this amazing transformation, revealing that we are made alive in Christ even when we were dead in our sins. This new birth instills a desire for God and a holy nature that leads us to live in accordance with His will.
