So do you deny it is when one has been regenerated one has been saved (Ephesians 2:8)?
Do you deny that regeneration and salvation are different things?
Not the same thing though!

No. Two concepts. In that regeneration is how. An salvation is what regeneration does. And regeneration is through faith in God's grace found in His Christ. So it is that faith precedes regeneration.
A lost sinner has to have God regen them first, and right then they receive Jesus thru faith!

Hmm? So without hearing the gospel? Hearing the gospel precedes faith which precedes regeneration. Unless the Holy Spirit sanctifies them first they will not heed the gospel.

It is agreed, I trust, that God knows His elect in His absolute omniscience (Ephesians 1:4; 1 Peter 1:1-2). But we do not know God until we have been called and chosen in time (Titus 1:2; John 17:3; 2 Thessalonians 2:13-14).
God does this for us in the sanctification of the Holy Spirit.
