What does the Bible say about the life of God in believers?

Answered in 1 source

The life of God in believers refers to the new creation empowered by His holiness, righteousness, and love, which contrasts with the old sinful nature.

The concept of the life of God is significant in Scripture, particularly in Ephesians 4:17-24 where Paul encourages believers to walk not as the Gentiles in their ignorance and darkness. Instead, they are called to embrace the new life that comes from God—this eternal life encompasses not only duration but also the quality aligned with God's holiness, justice, love, and righteousness. Believers, having been given a new heart and new nature, are created for good works that glorify God. This new life is a complete transformation where the believer is a new creature in Christ, predestined to bear His image and grow in holiness.
