Yes, as we understand it today having access to God's entire Word... but it's also being changed from one state into another state.
We know Adam was alive unto God because God warned him that if he ate of that tree he would surely die.
So, Adam was changed from life unto death.
The Word says Jesus... who knew no sin of His own, meaning He never committed any sin... was made to be sin for us and on the Cross Jesus acknowledged that the Father had forsaken Him.
So, Jesus was the first born from the dead and was the first man to be changed from death into life.... which is what hapend to us when we got born again.
We were separated from God, living in death... and we were resurrected with Christ unto life.

This 'officially declares JESUS to be the Son of God - changed from the 'son of man....a REAL change we also can look forward to at the resurrection. In the meantime we are only ''begotten if we have received the HS of God.
We need to base the 'spiritual birth on the pattern of the human re-production system....first 'begettal/conception followed by 'gestation and THEN the actual birth into the world / or into the Kingdom of God by the resurrection from the dead. That is the real process....not being 'born again now while still in the flesh.
