The new birth, whereby sinners become saints, is a supernatural miracle.
What does it mean to be born again? The Scripture says, "Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the Word of God, which lives and abides forever" (I Peter 1:23). We are born into God's family "not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God" (John 1:13). Salvation is "not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, says the Lord" (Zech. 4:6). Have you experienced this miracle?
The miracle of conversion changes the sinner's destiny from Hell to Heaven. There will come a day when "whosoever was not found written in the book of life [is] cast into the lake of fire" (Rev. 20:15). This is the eternal destiny of the "unbelieving" (Rev. 21:8). Do you have "hope . . . laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel" (Col. 1:5)?
The Lord in Heaven has promised to come and take the redeemed to be with Him. Since He ascended from the earth after His bodily resurrection, He has been in Heaven preparing a place for us. "I go to prepare a place for you . . . [and] I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there you may be also" (John 14:2-3).
The Holy Scriptures are the revelation of Jesus Christ. God has made Himself knowable to us so that we might receive Him and live in Him. "This is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that has the Son has life; and he that has not the Son of God has not life" (I John 5:11-12).
Christ willingly died on the cross as payment for our sins, but He rose from the grave, conquering death and sin. Romans 10:9 says "That if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you shall be saved."
The longing, sinful soul can safely put its trust in a loving Savior God. If you do not know Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, it is our prayer that you will accept His gift of salvation and enter into your personal miracle.
