We already have the resurrection as our nature in union with Christ's resurrection,
the firstfruits of our regeneration.  Regeneration *means* what was once dead (sin
nature) is now alive (new nature).

Nowhere does the scripture state that the regenerated New Creation has a sin nature.
 That doctrine is a manufactured fiction of Finneyism... the outgrowth of second
blessing/Keswickian's "I surrender All" interpretation of Romans 7.
