1 | Radical Change which we Cannot Perform | John 3:3 | DocTrinsograce | 202910 | ||
"'Except a man be born of the Spirit he can not see the kingdom of God; that which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.' If you like it not, quarrel with my Master, not with me; I do but simply declare his own revelation, that there must be in your heart something more than you can ever work there. There must be a divine operation; call it a miraculous operation, if you please; it is in some sense so. There must be a divine interposition, a divine working, a divine influence, or else, do what you may, without that you perish, and are undone; 'for except a man be born again, be can not see the kingdom of God.' The change is radical; it gives us new natures, makes us love what we hated and hate what we loved, sets us in a new road; makes our habits different, our thoughts different, makes us different in private, and different in public. So that being in Christ it is fulfilled: 'If any man be in Christ he is a new creature; old things are passed away, behold all things are become new.'" --Charles H. Spurgeon | ||||||

Amen to the Spurgeon quote (Post 202910) and thanks for posting it, Brother Doc; for surely it can cast much light to the paths of us all. Every member of SBF ought to meditate upon it himself and pass it on to others also. Soli Deo gloria! --Hank | ||||||
