It's my understanding that what's in our heart is what God is after, because that's where our treasure is: "For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also" (Mat 6:21). After Paul was saved he realized that he still had the sin nature ("old man"). That's why he kept saying he didn't want to sin. Thus, what he wanted (not to sin) was the treasure in his heart. God knows we do not want to sin and that's where He wants us, not desiring to sin even though He knows we will; it's also the reason we do not see Scripture that relates believers as "sinners" (1Pe 4:18).
Sure- agree.
What do you mean by the added word? Thanks for your instructional replies.

Ok, I see and thanks for the clarification! All modern translations except KJV, NKJV, Webster's, Young's Literal Translation, and others which do not derive from the recently discovered manuscript copies have false translations.

Being made alive is our resurrection from being dead in our sin to eternal life. Being born again comes by reading the Bible and listening to solid biblically sound preaching. Those words form the new man, the spiritual man.

1Pe 1:23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
I don't see the new (eternal) life we have in Christ as something different from being born again. We read of both descriptions of the new life in God's word.

Galatians 4:19“My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you.”

Paul is talking to believers — already saved, already sons (Galatians 3:26, 4:6). Yet he says he is again in travail until something more happens: Christ formed in them.

That shows a distinction. Saved, yes. But Paul still labors until they are born again, until Christ is formed in them.

Paul was heavenly Jerusalem, the mother of the second birth in all of us.

It is notable in that verses that Paul says "again". The context is that they had been converted, born again, but they were now being swayed by the false teachers, who were attempting to lure them back into Judaism. A few verses further on, Paul writes to the same Galatian Christians:

“Nevertheless what does the Scripture say? “Cast out the bondwoman and her son, for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman.” So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman but of the free.” (Ga 4:30-31 NKJV)

I stick to the Textus Receptus and the good ole KJV. If they were good enough for Paul they are good enough for me. hlo
