But you were washed [by the atoning sacrifice of Christ], you were sanctified [set apart for God, and made holy], you were justified [declared free of guilt] in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the [Holy] Spirit of our God [the source of the believer\u2019s new life and changed behavior]. <\/p><cite>1 Corinthians 6:11<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A Changed Life<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The greatest proof of the new birth is a changed life. The child of God now suddenly loves the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>He loves Jesus.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before conversion the sinner might hold Christ in high esteem, but after conversion he loves the Savior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Everyone who believes [with a deep, abiding trust in the fact] that Jesus is the Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed) is born of God [that is, reborn from above\u2014spiritually transformed, renewed, and set apart for His purpose], and everyone who loves the Father also loves the child born of Him. By this we know [without any doubt] that we love the children of God: [expressing that love] when we love God and obey His commandments.\u201d <\/p><cite>1 John 5:1\u20132<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>He loves the Bible.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We should love God\u2019s Word as the psalmist did in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.olivetree.com\/bible\/?query=Ps+119&amp;version=ASV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Psalm 119<\/a>.

The world is passing away, and with it its lusts [the shameful pursuits and ungodly longings]; but the one who does the will of God and carries out His purposes lives forever.\u201d <\/p><cite>1 John 2:15\u201317<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>He loves to talk to God.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A heart that has been changed by the grace of God loves to praise God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Speak to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, [offering praise by] singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord.\u201d <\/p><cite>Eph 5:19<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Get the Amplified Study Bible for Yourself<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"580\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.olivetree.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/AmplifiedStudyBibleSocial-1024x580.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-53355\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.olivetree.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/AmplifiedStudyBibleSocial-1024x580.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.olivetree.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/AmplifiedStudyBibleSocial-300x170.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.olivetree.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/AmplifiedStudyBibleSocial-768x435.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.olivetree.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/AmplifiedStudyBibleSocial-1536x870.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.olivetree.com\/store\/product.php?productid=36163\">Amplified Study Bible<\/a> combines the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.olivetree.com\/store\/product.php?productid=32748\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Amplified translation<\/a> along with over 5000 Bible study notes on the text.
