10 It must needs be therefore, that he must first regenerate us, and make us the sons of God, and new creatures. In which work, we are not co-workers with God, but merely such as stand still while he worketh, that we may be wrought upon, and reformed by him, even as we were at the first created by him, without any help of ours.
10 It must needs be therefore, that hee must first regenerate vs, and make vs the sonnes of God, and new creatures. In which worke, we are not co-workers with God, but meerelie such as stand still while he worketh, that wee may be wrought vpon, and reformed by him, euen as we were at the first created by him, without anye helpe of ours.
11 Now after regeneration, we are by faith drawn from death unto life, and to will is present with us, but so, as we are compassed about with many hinderances, by reason of the stings of sin and the flesh in us, which are not utterly done away: yet we begin to be co-workers with God, and we are so wrought upon, as we also do work: And we shall then wholly obey him, and stick unto him, even when our full restitution being wrought, we shall enjoy that blessed and heavenly life.
