Born Again Through the Living and Abiding Word

The new birth does not bring temporary resuscitation. It gives indestructible, imperishable life—eternal life.

Those who are born again have the promise that all of life’s worst troubles and pains work together for their everlasting good (Romans 8:28). Even when the spiritually reborn are persecuted and killed, not a hair on their eternal head will perish (Luke 21:18). The life of the new birth is eternal.

According to the apostle Peter, God gives the imperishable life of the new birth 1) through Jesus’ ransoming blood, 2) through his resurrection and 3) through the call of the gospel, “the living and abiding word of God.“
