The life of newness to be born again




The life of newness to be born again is the another creature. 

『Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.』(John 3:5) The life of newness to be born again is the resurrection. The resurrected body is different from the previous one. After the resurrection, Jesus suddenly appeared to the disciples.『And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.』 (Luke 24:36-37) He transformed himself.『After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked, and went into the country.』(Mark 16:12) We can not see the resurrected body because of the flesh. We just accept it by faith.

Why should we be born again? We can enter the kingdom of God only when we are born again. To be born again, we must believe that we become the dead same Jesus who was died on the cross. We must believe that Jesus, the Son of God, was died for our sins. So the death of Jesus must be identified with our.『For he that is dead is freed from sin.』(Romans 6:7) God raises up people to be dead with Jesus.

If we are born again by faith, then our consciousness enter in the resurrection life that the Holy Spirit lead. Those who put consciousness in a new spiritual body They become  being in Jesus Christ.

Question 64. What is the invisible church?

  Question 64. What is the invisible church? Answer. The invisible church is the total number of the elect who are gathered together and will be gathered together in the future under Christ, the head. In the catechism, the doctrine states that the invisible church is "the total number of the elect who are gathered together and will gather together in the future under Christ, the head," so it can be understood as those who make heaven in Christ. However, the invisible church can be said to be an invisible church community, but this was only used as a means to divide the visible church and the invisible church, and dividing them into visible and invisible is not biblical. The church is the church of the saints, and the church community is the gathering of the saints. The expression "true member" is also ambiguous.

Question 28. What is the punishment of sin in this life?

  Question 28. What is the punishment of sin in this life? Answer. The punishment of sin in this life is inwardly, hardening of the heart, corrupted senses, strong temptations, stubbornness of the mind, fear and shame of conscience, lust, and the like; and outwardly, the curse of God upon all things for our sakes, and all other evils that come to our bodies, names, positions, relations, and occupations, and so forth, which lead to death.   In this world, the punishment for sin is the spirit being imprisoned in the flesh. Original sin is when evil angels want to be like God in the kingdom of God, so they oppose God and die with their spirits imprisoned in human flesh. This is hell. The world is like a prison, and life is like a wanderer. All people who do not know God are suffering spiritually. That is why their hearts are broken. No matter how much you enjoy material blessings in life, there will surely come a day when your body dies. The day of judgment will surely co...

Question 10: Is that enough?

Question 10: Is that enough? Answer: No. Although the saints have become holy in Jesus Christ, they still have the characteristics of the old man in their hearts. Therefore, the saints must fight and overcome the fleshly desires of the old man through spiritual growth. Carnal desires are a collection of roughly seven characteristics: physical nature, blood ties, experience and knowledge, thoughts and ideologies, religious beliefs, self-righteousness, and the desire for dominance. These desires develop and diminish as we grow, but they remain constant overall. However, because these carnal desires establish a hostile opposition to God, they hinder and torment the spiritual growth of believers.
