Galatians 3:26
For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.
Jerry Vines poses the question: “If you’re Born Again before faith, what does faith accomplish?” (Calvinism: A Baptist and his Election)
Jerry Vines comments: “By faith in Christ Jesus, you are God’s child; you are Born Again; you are regenerated.” (Calvinism: A Baptist and his Election)
In other words, we are not Born Again before we believe. Rather, God makes us into a Born Again, regenerated child of God, on account of believing in His Son, in order to live in the manner that He has called us to live. That’s why we are made Born Again, and that’s the order in which it occurs.
