Regeneration ...


Ezekiel 36:26 

26 I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit within you. I will remove the heart of stone from your body and give you a heart of flesh.

 

 

Regeneration

 

Without regeneration, a spirit will reside

where darkness rules forever.

Gnashing of teeth and painful cries

will fill the atmosphere.

Fire and heat ... thirst and remorse

will go on forever.

There won’t be turning back no more,

that time is now ... right here.

 

Oh, the spirit of man ... what have you done?

You fell back in a fleshly position.

Nothing can return you back again

into a spiritual state.

No religion, meditation or standing on your head

will bring you where you need to be

“The inviting Heaven’s Gate”

 

Restoration comes from God,

there is nothing man can do about it.

It comes from Jesus Christ,

the only begotten Son of God.

He will operate in the center

of your inner being.

He will lead you home

to the place you long forgot.

 

Born of His Spirit

Baptized in the Same

Brought into His Family

One in His Name

Led by His Hand

to the altar of repentance

Dead to the world

Burning all my shame
