We Believe in the New Birth

Summary

Elder Michael Goans preaches on the doctrine of the new birth, emphasizing that salvation is a sovereign work of God involving a radical transformation of the soul. He explains that being born again is necessary to see the kingdom of God and is a spiritual rebirth from above, not a physical or human effort. The sermon highlights the biblical metaphors of birth, resurrection, and creation to describe regeneration and stresses that it is God who initiates and accomplishes this change. The message also clarifies misconceptions about baptismal regeneration and underscores the necessity of the new birth for salvation.
