If I understand what I have read, many in the Reformed faith believe that we are saved at the moment of regeneration. While others who believe in the elongated view, believe that salvation doesn't occur until both regeneration and faith have occurred.
Do I understand this matter correctly?
Please explain. Tom, I don't know where you find these novel ideas? But, I suppose on the Internet, you can find most anything. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/rolleyes2.gif" alt="" /> Regeneration doesn't save anyone. A sinner is JUSTIFIED BY FAITH ALONE. Regeneration produces the faith needed. Now, I have heard of some (we have some here) who believe that faith may follow regeneration even years after regeneration. However, I have never found any Biblical evidence to support this view either. What I believe is the Scriptural teaching is that faith follows regeneration immediately thereafter. The essential purpose of regeneration is to make one spiritually alive to the things of God and to bring one to Christ. What do YOU think? <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> In His Grace,
