Re: The Supernatural New Birth: First, the new birth is a divine work of God . . . . all things become new. (2nd Corinthians 5:17) Secondly, in the new birth we receive the Spirit of Christ, we are joined to God in ONE Spirit, the Spirit of His beloved Son. (1st Corinthians 6:17) Thirdly, in the new birth there is the moving and indwelling of God’s Spirit within the child of God. (Romans 8:9) This relationship of the Spirit of Christ cannot be broken. It cannot be diminished. It cannot be shut off. It is a supernatural part of the new birth in Jesus Christ, and because of the supernatural origin, these verses are too often ignored today. – Michael Haigh
The Church: It is not the material building, it is this supernatural structure of the souls of men that God is building in heaven to be gathered around Himself, to be changed into the image of their Savior, to be like Him in heavenly moral character, and to spend all eternity with Him. – Michael Haigh . Also quotes by A. W. Tozer, C. H. Macintosh, Charles J. Rolls and others.
The Creator performed a supernatural act in that the first Adam (the first man) gave us sin and death at the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. The second Man, the Man from heaven Jesus Christ gave us life at the tree of life: the tree of Calvary. – Michael Haigh – Also quotes by Charles J. Rolls, J. B. Stoney, and others.
Nothing but the supernatural operations of the Holy Spirit will avail. Not only is man polluted to the very core by sin original and actual, but there is in him absolute incapability to understand, embrace or enjoy spiritual things. (1st Corinthians 2:14) A. W. Pink (1886 – 1952) Also quotes by Adolph Saphir, Sir Robert Anderson, Charles J. Rolls and others.
The Lamb on the throne . . . sums up all Scripture history and prophecy, all Scripture doctrine and consolation; this fulfills all Scripture types; for here is the sacrifice, the sanctuary, and the royal High Priest. – Adolph Saphir (1831 – 1891) Also quotes by J. N. Darby, Charles J. Rolls and others,
Nothing external to man can impart to him a saving knowledge of God and His Christ. There must be a supernatural application of the truth made into the heart by the special power of God before it can be spiritually apprehended. – A. W. Pink (1886 – 1952) Also quotes by A. W. Tozer, Charles J. Rolls, and others.
Today’s evil is greater then yesterday’s evil, and tomorrow’s evil will be greater still. Evil is never static, it is always progressing. Maybe that is why corrupt government leaders call themselves progressives. – Mary Haigh – Also quotes by Darby, Saphir and others.
It took a supernatural Priest, a supernatural Sacrifice, and a supernatural Man to rectify Adam’s sin. – Michael Haigh – Also quotes by J. N. Darby, A. W. Pink and others.
