Regeneration as I Googled a commentary was what moved on the outside to allow one to have faith that Jesus is Lord. As Peter answered Jesus with : "you are the son of the living God " and Jesus said Flesh and blood did not reveal that to you but my father in heaven.
So some how as DW said God works faith in the person to believe who He is...
Is this regeneration? So if at that time man is awaken does He then receive the spirit simultaneously after He believes merely who Jesus is?
So just maybe believing who Jesus is...is not the same as being a son but part of the process of a regenerated person...someone who receives life, or the Spirit from above..yet the manifestation of one who has been enlightened is evidence by "zoe" a life of peace and Joy. As Faith without works is dead...maybe also knowledge without acceptance is dead...
