Now the Gospel as a word of salvation isnt sent to the unregenerate, they cant believe it 1 Cor 2:14. You wasting space. The Gospel is sent to them that fear God, the regenerate, as a word of their salvation.

 

[brightfame52]

Nope it through belief in the word that one is regenerated


The Holy Spirit regenerates a person under the impact of the gospel message. Peter claimed that believers have been born again “through the living and enduring word of God” (1 Pet 1:23 NIV), which is “the word that was preached to you” (1 Pet 1:25 NIV). James stated that God “chose to give us birth through the word of truth” (Jas 1:18 NIV). God speaks through the gospel to summon people to Himself and enables them to respond in faith, thus forming the context in which regeneration occurs (Dunn, Baptism, 37–38).1

1 Kirk R. MacGregor, “Regeneration,” The Lexham Bible Dictionary (Bellingham, WA: Lexham Press, 2016).

They are regenerated b4 the Gospel is sent to them like Cornelius

Not according to scripture

Regeneration by definition is the impartation of life



The following verses show faith precedes life

John 5:24 (KJV) Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. John 5:25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.

John 20:31 (KJV)
31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.

40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.

18 When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.

John 6:57 (KJV)
57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.

Regeneration makes one a child of God. Born of God -

One is made a child of God through faith

John 1:12 (KJV)
12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

Galatians 3:26 (KJV)
26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.

John 12:36 (KJV)
36 While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them.

Regeneration is a spiritual resurrection.



We are raised spiritually through faith

Colossians 2:12 (KJV)
12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.

One is born again(regenerated) through faith in gospel

James 1:18 (KJV)
18 Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.

1 Peter 1:23 (KJV)
23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

1 Corinthians 4:15 (KJV)
15 For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.


Regeneration is the mechanism of salvation

Titus 3:5 (KJV)
5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;

Ephesians 2:5 (KJV)
5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved

it is through faith we are saved

EPH 2:8 (KJV)
Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

.

Regeneration is preceded by remission of sin

Colossians 2:13 (KJV)
13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;

which requires both faith and repentance

Acts 10:43 (KJV)
43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

Luke 24:47 (KJV)
47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

Sorry there is nothing in the text stating he was regenerated and Acts shows he was not yet regenerated

Acts 11:14 (LEB) — 14 who will speak words to you by which you will be saved, you and all your household.’

Further you would have him regenerated without the Holy Spirit which he had not yet received, and being made a new creation apart from Christ.

13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;

which requires both faith and repentance

Acts 10:43 (KJV)
43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

Luke 24:47 (KJV)
47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

They are regenerated b4 the Gospel is sent to them like Cornelius. Cornelius feared God Acts 10:1-2

 

[brightfame52]

Sorry there is nothing in the text stating he was regenerated and Acts shows he was not yet regenerated

Acts 11:14 (LEB) — 14 who will speak words to you by which you will be saved, you and all your household.’

Further you would have him regenerated without the Holy Spirit which he had not yet received, and being made a new creation apart from Christ.


Of course, you address none of the scriptures showing faith precedes regeneration


They are regenerated b4 the Gospel is sent to them like Cornelius. Cornelius feared God Acts 10:1-2

A person who fears God is saved, regenerated already Ps 61:5

For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.

Ps 66 16
Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.

Cornelius was saved/regenerated as was Job who feared God Job 1:1

There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.
God heard and accepted his prayers Acts 10:2,4

2 A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway.

4 And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up

for a memorial before God.

So he had to pray in Faith James 5:5-6

5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.

Cornelius was just/righteous so God ears heard his prayers 1 Pet 3 12

For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.

That word righteous dikaios

Its the same word for just describing Cornelius Acts 10 24

And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man, and one that feareth God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned from God by an holy angel to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee.

So he was already a righteous man, who feared God, God sent him the Gospel to believe Acts 13 26

26 Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth God[like Cornelius], to you is the word of this salvation sent.

Thats who God sends the Gospel to, so they will believe !

Now the Gospel as a word of salvation isnt sent to the unregenerate, they cant believe it 1 Cor 2:14. You wasting space. The Gospel is sent to them that fear God, the regenerate, as a word of their salvation.

its only sent to the unregenerate, the unsaved- that is how the unbelievers become believers is by and through the gospel. no one is saved until they hear , believe, receive the gospel and by faith trust in Christ for the forgiveness of sins and confess Him as Lord.

you are wasting space and projecting.

As a word of salvation the Gospel is sent to the regenerate, them who fears God Acts 13:23-26

23 Of this man's seed hath God according to his promise raised unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus:

24 When John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.

25 And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think ye that I am? I am not he. But, behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.

26 Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.

Fearing God is blessing from regeneration,men naturally have no fear of God in their eyes Rom 3:18

18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.

And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.

These Gentiles Peter was sent to were regenerated and feared God, he was speaking specifically about Cornelius and others with him who feared God Acts 10:1-2

There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band,

2 A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alwa
