Pauline and Johannine "New Life"

Abstract

Because the Gospel has the power to change men into "New Beings," it is extremely relevant for any age. The New Testament has it as a central theme that men have been made "New Creatures," and have received "New Life," through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Regeneration, however, is an event which is unfortunately capable of various interpretations and is continually misunderstood. Therefore a constant re-examination of scripture's teaching on this matter is valuable.
