Born again

Evangelical Christian term

To be born again, or to experience the new birth, is a phrase, particularly in evangelical Christianity, that refers to a "spiritual rebirth", or a regeneration of the human spirit. In contrast to one's physical birth, being "born again" is distinctly and separately caused by the operation of the Holy Spirit. It occurs when one accepts Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior, upon which point they are said to have "died" to their sinful state and been born into a new, saved life.
