It is Christ who makes us into a new creation when we become born again.
We think differently from how we used to think which leads us to different words, actions and reactions than we had before.
If someone claims to be a Christian and thinks the same way they did before they became one then they joined a club but never became born again.
2 Corinthians 5:17
"17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, [a]he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come."
Born again believers do not rage when they have been confronted with their sin, they are ashamed and want to learn to do better with the help of Christ Who lives in them.
Born again believers hate anything that offends God, they do not rest until they have confessed to be cleansed.
1 John 1:9
"9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."
