John 5:9

9 And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.

Ver. 9. And immediately the man ] Christ’s words are operative (together with his commands there goes forth a power, as Luk 5:17 ). So they were in the creation, Genesis 1:3 . So they are still in regeneration, Isaiah 59:21 . Dei dicere, est efficere. For God to say is to do.
