Thomas is saved by intaking/receiving
the red pill in faith (red pill = blood of Christ). He then:
finds he is a new and different person
(becomes a 'Neo'/new creature in Christ)
is 'disrupted' from Matrix
input/output (severed from the system of the fallen world)
is 'located/pinpointed' by Morpheus
(God the Good Shepherd 'finds the lost sheep')
sees himself become whole as mirror
fractures heal (becomes whole, is healed)
sees his face in the mirror (sees his
true self through faith in the word of God)
is replicated into a like image of
Morpheus (transformed by constant faith into God's purity and character)
enters the mirror into the real world
(enters into the truth; into the kingdom of God)
has taken action upon truth, not just
looked at it (is now a 'doer' of the word of God, not just a hearer)
goes into 'arrest' (dies; is
considered crucified with Christ)
wakes up from the 'dead' (is raised
with Christ, is no longer spiritually asleep or dead)
is freed from life-draining
cables/dependency on the Matrix (is freed from the fallen world)
sees the Matrix was not the truth
(sees the fallen world as God sees it)
enters a new world, and is alien to
the Matrix (becomes citizen of kingdom of God, is not of the world)
learns that most of humanity is lost
in unbelief, asleep, enslaved, headed for destruction (same spiritually)
is found defective by the (lost) world
system and rejected as an enemy of it (same spiritually)
sees his enemy, that he is at war (a
Christian learns he has spiritual enemies who war against God)
is 'born' from a 'womb' (a person is
spiritually born by trusting Christ for salvation; i.e. 'born again')
is like a baby; clean-skinned but weak
(a Christian is new and pure, but needs to grow spiritually)
is figuratively drowned and raised (a
parallel to baptism, God considers him crucified and raised)
has some gold material on his chest
(gains a new heart)
becomes part of a body / crew of
believers who help one another (like the church, other Christians)
truly experiences life: "Am I
dead?" "Far from it!" (has eternal life, real life)
can see for the first time (unless a
man is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God / spiritual things)
enters rest: "Rest, Neo. The
answers are coming" (a Christian enters the spiritual rest and wisdom of God)
