Now, pray tell, how can someone be considered a Christian if they have not been previously regenerated?

It’s not as typical as you may think, our denomination of 9000 or so and our sister denomination of over 100,000 reject Kuyper’s view of "presumptive regeneration" and certainly do not believe in a presumed salvation of covenant children but stress the need for regeneration between the cradle and the grave. THE END.
