Born again

===Quakerism===
The majority of the world's [[Quakers]] are evangelical in churchmanship and teach a born-again experience (cf. [[Evangelical Friends Church International]]).<ref name="2018AngellDandelion">{{cite book |last1=Angell |first1=Stephen Ward |last2=Dandelion |first2=Pink |title=The Cambridge Companion to Quakerism |date=2018 |publisher=Cambridge University Press |isbn=978-1-107-13660-1 |page=290 |language=en |quote=Contemporary Quakers worldwide are predominately evangelical and are often referred to as the Friends Church.}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |last1=Kurian |first1=George Thomas |last2=Lamport |first2=Mark A. |title=Encyclopedia of Christianity in the United States |date=2016 |publisher=Rowman & Littlefield |isbn=978-1-4422-4432-0 |page=827 |language=en |quote=Evangelical Friends believe that those who are born again through faith in Jesus Christ receive the Holy Spirit at conversion and that they manifest the fruit of the Spirit and conform more to the likeness of God as they trust in the Lord and walk in obedience to His commands. They believe God's purpose for all believers is the fullness of the Spirit, which God will graciously grant to them as they are fully consecrated to His will and trust in Christ's promises and atoning sacrifice on their behalf. Sanctification is the result of the continuous discipline and cleansing of the believer. The fullness of the Spirit does not, however, make believers incapable of choosing to sin, and Evangelical Friends believe it is even possible to fall completely away from God. However, as long as they are willing to receive this discipline and experience the fullness of the Spirit, they are given the ability to experience victory over sin and to love God and other people to the fullest extent possible. Evangelical Friends believe the security of the believer is conditioned upon continuing faith in and obedience to Jesus Christ.}}</ref>

The [[Central Yearly Meeting of Friends]], a Holiness Quaker denomination, teaches that [[Regeneration (theology)|regeneration]] is the "divine work of initial salvation (Tit. 3:5), or conversion, which involves the accompanying works of justification (Rom. 5:18) and adoption (Rom. 8:15, 16)."<ref name="CYMF2018"/> In regeneration, which occurs in the new birth, there is a "transformation in the heart of the believer wherein he finds himself a new creation in Christ (II Cor. 5:17; Col. 1:27)."<ref name="CYMF2018">{{cite book |title=Manual of Faith and Practice of Central Yearly Meeting of Friends |date=2018 |publisher=[[Central Yearly Meeting of Friends]] |page=26 |language=English}}</ref>

Following the new birth, [[George Fox]] taught the possibility of "holiness of heart and life through the instantaneous baptism with the Holy Spirit subsequent to the new birth" (cf. [[Christian perfection#Quaker teaching|Christian perfection]]).<ref>{{cite book |title=Quaker Religious Thought, Issues 99–105 |date=2003 |publisher=[[Religious Society of Friends]] |page=22 |language=English}}</ref>
