Regeneration - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In Christian theology, regeneration is the process by which men are given new hearts; that is, the process by which they are "born again", experiencing a "new birth". In inner-city development, regeneration or renewal is the improving of a poor or run-down area by a programme of investment in areas such as infrastructure or housing. Regeneration is also the name of an episode of Star Trek: Enterprise which focused on this aspect of the Borg. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Regeneration   (464 words)

Regeneration (biology) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Regeneration is the ability to restore lost or damaged tissues, organs or limbs. Children under 6 years of age are capable of regenerating lost fingertips and the human liver retains its ability to regenerate throughout a person's lifetime. Regeneration of a lost limb occurs in two major steps, first de-differentiation of adult cells into a stem cell state similar to embryonic cells and second, development of these cells into new tissue more or less the same way it developed the first time. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Regeneration_(biology)   (601 words)

Regeneration   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05) Regeneration is the theological term for the Christian's "new" or "second" birth in Christ. By definition, regeneration is the act of God by which He imparts divine life to man upon the single condition of faith in Jesus Christ as personal Savior. The phrase "not of blood" shows that regeneration cannot be inherited. www.realtime.net /~wdoud/topics/regenrtn.html   (481 words)

11. Of Regeneration. What regeneration is, or what is meant by it, the nature of it; which is so mysterious, unknown, and unaccountable to a natural man, as it was to Nicodemus, though a master in Israel; now it may be the better understood by observing the phrases and terms by which it is expressed. Regeneration is a passing from death to life; it is a principle of spiritual life implanted in the heart; in consequence of which, a man breathes, in a spiritual sense; where there is breath, there is life. There are, in a regenerated man, which shows that he is made alive, cravings after spiritual food: as soon as an infant is born, it shows motions for its mother's milk, after the breast: so newborn babes desire the sincere milk of the word, that they may grow thereby. www.pbministries.org /books/gill/Doctrinal_Divinity/Book_6/book6_11.htm   (1997 words)

Regeneration Theologians who favor mediate regeneration have tried to avoid this difficulty by contending that in both expressions, "out of the seed" and "through the word," the same truth is meant, and that the apostle in the first expression uses a figure, while in the second he speaks more literally. The seed of regeneration, that is, the principle of the new life, is implanted by the Holy Spirit in the heart. Of this regeneration the Savior also speaks to Nicodemus in the well-known words: "Except a man be born again, he can not see the kingdom of God."31 There is a difference of opinion with regard to the meaning of the word "born again. www.prca.org /articles/regeneration.html   (4747 words)

Regeneration Regeneration is the spiritual change wrought in the heart of man by the Holy Spirit in which his/her inherently sinful nature is changed so that he/she can respond to God in Faith, and live in accordance with His Will (Matt. Regeneration, or new birth, is an inner re-creating of fallen human nature by the gracious sovereign action of the Holy Spirit (John 3:5-8). The regenerate man has forever ceased to be the man he was; his old life is over and a new life has begun; he is a new creature in Christ, buried with him out of reach of condemnation and raised with him into a new life of righteousness (see Rom. mb-soft.com /believe/txs/regenera.htm   (1492 words)

Wired 11.11: Regrow Your Own Regeneration studies is a backwater even among biologists, who have been chopping the legs off salamanders for more than 200 years without ever discovering why some of them manage to grow back. But a paradox of regeneration is that the higher you move up the evolutionary chain, the less likely you'll have the ability to regrow limbs or organs.

Regeneration   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05) The nature of regeneration is of course variously conceived by different schools, according to their various views of the nature of the soul and its relation to God, of original or habitual sin, and of divine grace. Regeneration is therefore essentially the communication of a new spiritual life, and is properly called a 'new birth.' (2) As to its efficient cause: It is effected by divine power acting supernaturally and immediately upon the soul, quickening it to spiritual life, and implanting gracious principles of action. Others hold that there are two regenerations one a change of state or relation, and the other a change of nature; the first is baptismal and the second moral, though both are spiritual, since both are wrought by the Holy Ghost. www.graceonlinelibrary.org /etc/printer-friendly.asp?ID=603   (522 words)

REGENERATION - Holman Bible Dictionary on StudyLight.org Need for Regeneration The great need for an experience of regeneration is apparent from the sinful condition of human beings, “dead in trespasses and sins” (Ephesians 2:1). Regeneration occurs when the Holy Spirit takes the truth of the gospel message and allows the individual both to understand it and to commit oneself to it. In regeneration each believer has put off the old way of life, become clothed with a new way of life, and is in the process of having one's mind renewed in its thinking, reasoning, and willing. www.studylight.org /dic/hbd/view.cgi?number=T5283   (836 words)

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Regeneration Regeneration is a Biblico-dogmatic term closely connected with the ideas of justification, Divine sonship, and the deification of the soul through grace. To the above-mentioned ideas of regeneration, generation out of God, participation in the Divine nature, and re-creation, a fifth, that of Divine sonship, must be added; this represents the formal effect of justification and is crowned by the personal indwelling of the Holy Ghost in the justified soul (cf. Irenæus repeatedly interprets the Pauline term "re-creation" as the universal regeneration of mankind through the incarnation of the Son of God in the womb of the Blessed Virgin. www.newadvent.org /cathen/12714a.htm   (1307 words)

Vol 3: Regeneration Hence regeneration is the gradual process of replacing these degenerate fibers, one by one, and replacing it with a heavenly affection that coils in the heavenly direction.

Regeneration, John 3:1-8 Regeneration, therefore, is a spiritual resurrection, the beginning of a new life." Thiesseen says, "Regeneration may be defined as the communication of divine life to the soul, as the impartation of a new nature, or heart and the production of a new creation." But regeneration is a direct act of God upon the spirit of a man. Truth cannot be the means of regeneration, because before a man is regenerated, he is blind and cannot see the truth, deaf and cannot hear the truth, dead and cannot respond to the truth. Regeneration is a direct act of God upon the spirit of man. It is a spiritual resurrection. www.bereanbiblechurch.org /transcripts/topical/regeneration.htm   (3484 words)

Regeneration And because of that moral inability of man, a radical and complete transformation must be performed in the soul of the sinner by God the Holy Spirit, by virtue of which he becomes a son of God, a new man, a new creation. Jesus Christ himself says that the effect of regeneration is this: Before regeneration the sinner can be described as flesh, but as a result of regeneration, he is described as spirit.

Regeneration   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05) WHAT REGENERATION IS "Regeneration," says Dabney, "is a supernatural renovation of the dispositions which determine the moral purpose, and of the understanding in the apprehension of moral and spiritual truth; the whole resulting in a permanent and fundamental conversion in the actings of the whole man as to sin and holiness--the flesh and God" (13). Without regeneration it is morally and spiritually impossible for a person to believe in Christ, but when a person is regenerated it is morally and spiritually impossible for that person not to believe. Regeneration is the renewing of the heart and mind, and the renewed heart and mind must act according to their nature" (16). www.mbrem.com /salvation/regene.htm   (3762 words)

Decisional Regeneration by James E. Adams Baptismal Regeneration teaches that the new birth is conveyed by the waters of baptism. The methods and theology of those that practice "Decisional Regeneration" need to be examined-not with a malicious spirit, but with a fervent desire that all of God's people may be one in doctrine and practice for the glory of God. The practice of "Decisional Regeneration" in the Church must be exposed in order to save men from the damning delusion that because they have "decided" or "signed a card," they are going to heaven and are no longer under the wrath of God. www.the-highway.com /articleOct98.html   (4890 words)

SingaporeMoms - Parenting Encyclopedia - Regeneration (biology) It is a common feature in invertebrates, such as worms, but the only vertebrates known to have a significant ability for regeneration is the urodeles. Aside from being used to generally describe any number of specific healing processes, regeneration also is a specific method of healing that is noted for its ability to regrow lost limbs, severed nerve connections, and other wounds that mammals cannot heal. This is not possible in mammals because there are specific factors, still being explored, that inhibit the expression of regeneration. www.singaporemoms.com /parenting/Regeneration_(biology)   (452 words)

Regeneration Regeneration is the ability to replace lost or damaged body parts. Planarians are valued for research on regeneration as individual genes that might participate in the process can be knocked out by RNA interference (RNAi). Much of the excitement of research on stem cells is because of the hope that they may provide a means of regrowing damaged or lost tissues or even organs. users.rcn.com /jkimball.ma.ultranet/BiologyPages/R/Regeneration.html   (668 words)

Reference.com/Encyclopedia/Regeneration (ENT episode) "Regeneration" is the title of a Star Trek: Enterprise television episode from season two. The episode "Regeneration" also provides some continuity to the Voyager episode "Dark Frontier" in which the crew of the USS Raven set out on a journey to find the Borg, and an earlier episode "The Raven" which detailed the circumstances surrounding Seven of Nine's assimilation aboard that vessel. These events take place at least 10-15 years before The Next Generation episode "Q Who?", due to the fact that Seven is depicted as a child at the time of her assimilation, yet is a woman in her late 20s/early 30s at the time of her liberation. www.reference.com /browse/wiki/Regeneration_(ENT_episode)   (527 words)

Amazon.com: Regeneration: Books: Pat Barker   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05) Regeneration, one in Pat Barker's series of novels confronting the psychological effects of World War I, focuses on treatment methods during the war and the story of a decorated English officer sent to a military hospital after publicly declaring he will no longer fight. "Regeneration" by Pat Barker is the first of three acts, that examine War, its advocates, the objectors, and groups that society continues to marginalize to this day. Pat Barker's "Regeneration" trilogy, an anti-war blend of obscure history and eloquent fiction, presents a different picture, one that articulates a side of war more frightening than the accepted version of brutal violence and noble self sacrifice. www.amazon.com /exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0452270073?v=glance   (2952 words)

Amazon.com: Regeneration (1915) : Video   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05) Firstly, I was expecting more of a gangster movie in "Regeneration" as the introductions said, but found it to have a much deeper, spiritual meaning overall, making it far less sinister than I had imagined. Regeneration is one of the early films of Raoul Walsh, a truly great director, who would go on to make such classic films as The Thief of Bagdad, The Roaring Twenties and High Sierra. It would be grossly unfair to complain about the quality of the print of Regeneration as it is a miracle that it survives at all. www.amazon.com /exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/6303507638?v=glance   (1914 words)

The Divine Comedy - Regeneration : album review Despite the back-to-basics approach, Regeneration is still easily recognised as a product of the same band, albeit with the addition of producer Nigel Godrich. Regeneration has much more depth and is clearly rooted far more in the writer's experiences than anything that went before, such as the set-piece concept of Promenade or the wry, detached observation which characterised Fin de Siecle. Perhaps, then, what Regeneration adds up to and what makes it rather special is its ability to marry stripped-down beats and arrangements which suggest angst, with lyrics which are overwhelmingly positive. www.musicomh.com /albums/divine-comedy-2.htm   (709 words)
