You must have a heart-felt response to God.
This response includes repentance for sin (Mk 1:15; Acts 26:20)
Trust that Christ died for you and your sins (Heb 10:10; Rom 3:24 - 26)
A desire for Christ to come into your heart - become Lord of your life. (John 1:12; Rom 10:9)
You may not understand all doctrine but by the Holy Spirit you know that you have encountered the holy and living God and you need a proper relationship with Him.
Now new birth is relational in nature - involving two people beginning a new relationship.
It is not just God's action or yours alone. John 1:12 - 13
Holy Spirit will say to you that you are truly God's child - Rom 8:9, 14 - 16
Regeneration (Born again; new birth, Accepting Christ) does not change your "flesh" - body & soul
Your "flesh" will still look for fulfillment outside of Christ.
You will love the Lord, your King and Saviour.
