HUMANS WERE CREATED AS TRIUNE BEINGS!
Genesis 1:26 - And God said, Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness....
1 Thessalonians 5:23 - And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
ADAM DIED SPIRITUALLY WHEN HE SINNED!
Genesis 2:17 - But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, you shall not eat of it: for in the day that you eat thereof, you shall surely die.
Ephesians 2:1, 5 - And you...were dead in trespasses and sins - - - we were dead in sins....
WE MUST BE SPIRITUALLY BORN AGAIN!
John 3:5-7 - Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water (our physical birth) and of the Spirit (a spiritual birth), he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto you, You must be born again.
BEING BORN AGAIN LEADS TO BECOMING LIKE JESUS!
1 Peter 1:18-23 - Forasmuch as you know that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation (way of life) received by tradition from your fathers; but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, who by Him do believe in God, Who raised Him up from the dead, and gave Him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God. Seeing you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that you love one another with a pure heart fervently: being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the Word of God, which lives and abides forever.
1 John 3:1-2 - Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons (children) of God: therefore the world knows us not, because it knew Him not. Beloved, now are we the sons (children) of God, and it does not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is.
1 John 5:1-7 - Whosoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loves Him Who begot, loves Him also that is begotten of Him. By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep His commandments (see Matthew 22:36-40; Galatians 5:13-14). For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments: and His commandments are not grievous. For whatsoever is born of God overcomes the world: and this is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith. Who is he that overcomes the world, but he that believes that Jesus is the Son of God? This is He that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit Who bears witness, because the Spirit is truth. For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
BELIEVE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST,
AND YOU WILL BE BORN AGAIN!
