Summary: Many call it a new birth! It's actually a new life, a transformation brought about by the Spirit of God.
Notice 3 things in this passage of scripture. First...
I. We see our life BEFORE we accepted Christ.
-We were spiritually dead, but were made alive in Christ. v1
-We see our former sinful lifestyle. v2-3
II. We see our life CHANGED when we trusted Christ.
-Notice God's mercy and love. v4
-Though dead to God, we were made alive by His grace. v5
-He raised us to a new life in Christ. v6
-In ages to come He will show us His amazing grace in Christ. v7
-His salvation was the gift of God, not any works on our part. v8-9
III. We see our life SERVING Christ after He saved us.
-We were saved by grace to serve Him.
-God's eternal plan is for us to serve Him.
Are you saved? If not, repent of your sin today and put your trust
in the finished work of Jesus on the cross. He died for you there!
Accept Jesus right now! Then you commit to serve Him today!
