"You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE BEFORE OTHERS, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven." Matthew 5:14-16
"'Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.' Amen." Matthew 28:19-20
When you were born again you were really born again on the inside. Your soul (mind, will, and emotions) and spirit were made new, John 3:3!
When the Bible teaches you are in the present a “new creation,” it means you are new creation in both soul and spirit, 2 Corinthians 5:17-22.
Also, when the Scriptures teach you are the “righteousness of God in Christ Jesus,” “holy,” “blameless,” “pure,” and “free from sin” it doesn’t mean when you die but rather it means you are all this today in Christ.
Sometimes people in the church have only believed Jesus made them new in their spirit, but their soul (mind, will, & emotions) is still old and unsaved. Thus, this leads to the belief that one must be born again twice. Once now in their spirit and another time at death in their soul.
However, Jesus and the apostles didn’t teach this. They taught that when you were born again the new birth effected both your soul and spirit, Matthew 22:37.
Your soul is uniquely you "YOUnique". When your soul is made new, and you allow the Holy Spirit to use your mind, will, and emotions to be in check with God's will, you are able to do the work the Father put you here to do. Your unique purpose can be fulfilled when you allow the Holy Spirit to shine through you - when you let your born again Soul Shine!
"Make a joyful shout to the Lord, all you lands! Serve the Lord with gladness; Come before His presence with singing. Know that the Lord, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting, And His truth endures to all generations." Psalms 100:1-5
"Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies." 1Corinthians 6:19-20
