Bible Note: New Birth "Cleansing from sin that God gives to all who believe on his Son through the Holy Spirit. "Some have considered the new birth to be a process a person experiences, even over a period of years. Such an interpretation is not congruent with the tense of the Greek verb in this passage (John 3). The aorist tense suggests that the new birth is an event rather than a process. Prior to a certain point in time, a person is not-born-again or regenerated; after that point, the person is. "The new birth is, then, a sovereign act of God by his Spirit in which the believer is cleansed from sin and given spiritual birth into God's household. It renews the believer's intellect, sensibility, and will to enable that person to enter the kingdom of God." Carl B. Hoch, Jr. Bibliography. L. L. Belleville, Trinity 1 (1980): 125-41; F.
