A follow-up to yesterday’s incomplete, but accurate (biblically, anyway –for what that’s worth), summation of the state of mankind.

We are thankless, discontented, rebellious, greedy, selfish, and natural enemies of God as children of Adam.

The only thing that can change that state is a miracle –the miracle of regeneration.

This is from God, toward us who humbly trust in Jesus. It is unimaginable mercy which begins in believers a transformation where a new creature emerges and the old standard (the natural) is slowly, continually overwhelmed by the magic of New Life. Read about it here.

It’s no less a miracle than water to wine,

it’s superior yes, but of the same kind.

One thing is one thing, and then it’s another,

was just an enemy –now, just, a brother.
