A Library Of Resources For Spiritual Growth
This most real experience is described in various ways. When God reveals and gives unto us His love in Christ Jesus the new life commences. Contrasting it with our past condition, we call this crisis “regeneration.” Regarding the change that is effected in our will, we call it “conversion” or turning unto God. Looking at the attitude in which the soul then stands to the divine love, we call it “faith.” But viewing it as the starting point of a new course, it is the receiving of the Holy Ghost as an indwelling spirit, it is the entrance of Christ into the heart, it is the communication of that love of God which is perfect, infinite, unchanging. God now dwelleth in us because we love, and because He hath given to us of His Spirit.
