Yes, it does. I honestly never thought about the "words" involved, the process, and the exact order in which it happens. I know that I am a sinner, I know that I need a Savior. I know that God sent His only Son, Jesus, to die on the cross for my sins. I know that He rose again on the third day and now resides in heaven with the Father, and that the Holy Spirit resides in me. I know that because I believe those facts, I am saved to eternal life with Jesus Christ!!!

I always thought regeneration, repentance and conversion all happened at the same glorious time!! But I was saved when I was 8 years old...most likely didn't understand things like "natural man", "radical depravity", and heart transplants!! I just knew I was a sinner who needed a Savior, Jesus was that Savior, and I confessed that "He is Lord"!

Pretty simple, when you get right down to it! However, now that I know what REALLY happened to me way back then, it's even MORE miraculous!!

The question CJ is HOW you know those things and your neighbor does not??

The doc explains the speed at which these events (regeneration/ conversion ) happen as a bullet going through a board..which came first ..the bullet or the whole it passes through ??

The order IS important because it is about the sovereignity of God
