it is both a physical change that comes over the body and it is all a mental change that comes over the mind. it is an awakening of new perceptions. it is release from the sinful desire of the flesh. it is the death of ego and the rebirth of love. emotions long ago shut off have returned. everything physical we have enjoyed sits in the shade when compared to Spiritual Love.
remember those 3-d posters they used to sell at the mall? they were just a mess of dots and eventually you would see a picture instead of the dots. this is exactly what it is like to become aware of the kingdom of God. before i was born again those dots were things that i looked at for my own purpose and desires. when i confessed and asked Jesus for help those dots all came to form a new picture i had never seen before. this time i perceived how those dots were serving Gods will. its a picture that literally encompasses the entire world and works through all of creation. it is hearing all of heaven and earth singing in a single voice.
to say you get a new mind and understanding is an understatement that can only be witnessed to. describing it brings controversy as the blind refuse to accept you can see what they cannot. they see with their own mind, the born again have experienced the mind of Christ and see things in a new way. before you are born again you see white light into a prism, after being born again you see the rainbow coming out of the prism. it is still the same light, it has not changed, it is us that are changed. the teachings of the bible become a reality of experience as you become conformed to the image of Christ.
the physical changes that come from being born again is a release from the physical desires that once dominated your life. you no longer have the cravings and urges that you used to. physical addiction to drugs/alcohol passes and the desire is no longer even there to do them. the physical desires are changed with this sexually as well. your body no longer burns with desire of lust. while both things can still be done the body no longer reacts to them as they used to. an orgasm which used to be a total focus of physical experience no longer effects you that way. a sneeze now days seems to be more physically satisfying. born again of imperishable seed indeed.
i saw and knew nothing until i confessed and asked Jesus for help. the bible is the word of God and Jesus is his Son. i am a witness
