NEW BIRTH. THE VINE, ETC. NO. 3
NEW BIRTH. THE VINE, ETC. NO. 3
Evidently if you are born of the Spirit, that is an eternal work. It is a wholly new and divine sense which will last for ever. The danger is in making it more than God intends, and thus sinking into the leaven in Christendom [p. 121] that new birth is enough, and the nature of the judgment on man is ignored. There is death in one man and life in another Man, you must be severed by death from the first man, in order to enjoy life in the second Man.
