CHRISTIANITY VS NEW BIRTH

Living right is good, but it won't make you a Christian. Sitting in church on Sunday morning won't make you a Christian any more than sitting in your garage will make you an automobile.
This won't take you to heaven. Being born again will, though.

Striving to be good on your own is not Christianity, it is mere religion. Christianity is being born again. Christianity is receiving the gift of eternal life. When eternal life, which is the nature and the life of God, is imparted to your spirit, it changes you. This life of God coming into man's heart makes this inward man (the real man) a new man. We don't have to make ourselves new. We couldn't anyhow. When we are born again, however, we are a new man with a new nature, for Paul said "old things are passed away (our old, sinful nature); behold, all things are become new."
