“According to Titus 3:5 you have been washed, regenerated, and cleansed.”
A Bible study on John (chapter 10) teaching that eternal life begins the moment one believes in Jesus, explaining the believer as spirit/soul/body, the evidence of Jesus' works as proof of Messiahship, and practical implications for discipleship and spiritual growth.
““We get washed by the regeneration of the word” (paraphrase of Titus 3:5).”
Pastors James and Tiffaney Edwards preach on learning God's ways, calling believers to holiness, surrender, and spiritual maturity. They contrast mere salvation with conversion, transformation and reformation, warn against tolerating 'sloppy living,' and call the congregation to practical obedience — surrender, renounce old patterns, give sacrificially, and return to corporate worship (in-person service resumed August 20).
“Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit.”
A Bible study on 1 Corinthians explaining the Holy Spirit's role in the church: empowering preaching, revealing the gospel, transforming believers (washed, sanctified, justified), guiding marriage and singleness, distributing spiritual gifts, enabling discernment and tongues, and the process to receive the Holy Spirit through believing, repentance, baptism in Jesus' name, and receiving the gift of the Holy Spirit.
