Hmmm, I don’t want to mess anything up but if the misunderstanding is centered on the beginning or end of our journey, then it seems simple to me, unless I am missing something.thistle:
Basically, what I am getting at is some believe being born again is a new birth in Christ. This birth is the beginning of our faith journey not the end.It means born again in Christ when baptised.
Where as it seems others are saying when we are born again we are there, it is the end of the journey, it is finished and we have the Holy Spirit within us and all of the gifts that come with the Holy Spirit.
I say seems here because that what it seems they are saying, which is why I ask for clarification.
Thanks,
God Bless
I don’t see anywhere that it is said that we are at the end of our spiritual journey when we become born again. My logic tells me it is at the beginning of my spiritual journey. The difference it seems to me, is when did my spiritual journey begin? The understanding that I have, is that it started when I reached the age of reason and was capable of making my own personal decision to allow Christ to be my Savior and Lord. I was born physically as a baby and had no choice in being born and who my parents were. I was born again not physically but spiritually when I was presented with the reality that I had to make a personal choice of who my Master would be, myself or my Heavenly Father. That is not a choice someone can make for me. God’s plan for the salvation of my soul was completed with Christ’s death and resurrection and is freely offered to all who believe.
