Jesus Christ was made the firstborn of the Father for the purpose of many others to follow His footsteps. Before Jesus died on the cross and was resurrected, all men were the same. They were soul men living in physical bodies with a carnal sinful nature.

When you become born again, 

you become a “New Creature,”

one that never existed in the Earth before Jesus reconciled us to the Father.

As a “New Creature”, you are a spirit that lives with a soul in a physical body. No longer is the “you” that you know a soul man, but now the “you” that you know is a spirit man.

Your soul still has all the old memories and thought patterns that you had before you were born again, but your anointed spirit is perfect. He has never been subject to sin and never can sin because he is a spirit from The Father. He has the mind of Christ and is always subject to The Father’s will, as the soul will be.

But the natural man (those who haven’t received Jesus Christ as Lord) does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. 1Corinthians 2:14

Even after the salvation experience, your soul which was born of flesh has a hard time understanding the things of the spirit because he thinks with a earthly mindset, but  your spirit is mature, able to discern Truth from lies. He knows the things of God and begins teaching your soul to be submissive to the desires of the Father and to walk upright and to seek to understand this “More” that is being continually presented as a Present Day Truth.

We are still living in a physical body
and thinking with our natural mind.

Being Born Again is not our final stage of development.
It is actually the beginning.
It’s a transitioning FROM what we were TO what we are becoming.

We are in transition to the day when we will receive that promised “spiritual body,” that one like Christ’s.

This spiritual evolution is one of God’s great promises to us.

The plan of God was for Adam and his children to change into the Father’s Children of Tomorrow, chosen to be like Christ!

Right now, the only one who is living like this is Jesus Christ which is why the scripture calls him

“The Firstborn of the Father.”

For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. Romans 8:29

If the Father has called you to experience salvation where you have been begotten of the Father, then you have a destiny. You have been predestinated to change into the image that The Father has designed you to be, one like Christ.

Can you see the awesome Love of the Father?

According as He hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Having predestinated  us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will !    Ephesians 1:4,5

He chose you to be adopted into His family before the world was made. That’s His Structured Plan of Design that causes the angels to wonder.
