Country Girl; Believe me. I understand. My personal survey is intended only to see whether or not individuals believe we are passive or pro-active in the event called "new birth" In other words did you or did you not do something to bring about your new birth? Blessings New Creature |

2 | The New Birth - A Survey | NT general Archive 1 | Country Girl | 128940 | ||
Since you've now re-qualified your question and left out the word "regeneraion," I would have to repeat that yes, very definitely I repented of my sins, confessed my Lord and Savior and was baptized as a teen-ager many years ago. I did all this in a very passive and submissive frame of mind so put me down as passive. Hopefully, you're going to give us the results of your survey with some numbers and/or percentages? I'm looking forward to your results...should be very interesting. Blessings to you. Country Girl |

Country Girl; Thank you once again for your reply. I would like to ask you another question if I may, which will better help me in completing my survey. You say to put you down as "passive" So the question I have is: Would you classify your "repenting" as being passive or active? Blessings New Creature |

Since repentance is an action of reversing our attitude and lifestyle so that we determine to live a life patterned after our Lord, that would have to be an active role on our part. Of course I believe that we have to repent of our sins on a daily basis, at least those days we're above ground. Blessings to you. Country Girl |

Country Girl Help me understand. You said to put you down as passive concerning the "new birth" but now you say, in our repenting we are active. So if we must be active and repent, how can we say that in the new birth we are passive. If you were to say that the "new birth" precedes repentance, and we are passive in our new birth, but then we must be active in our repenting, then that would seem consistent to me. Help me out here. God Bless New Creature |
