What Does It Mean To Be Born Again?

This term first appears in the Bible in John chapter three...

"There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again." -John 3:1-7

To understand this Biblical term, it is necessary to understand that there are TWO BIRTHS. The "first" birth is the PHYSICAL BIRTH when you were born into this world from your mother and father. When the Bible speaks of being "born of water," it is speaking about the physical birth (NOT baptism). The "second" birth is a SPIRITUAL BIRTH, which means to be born of the "Spirit" (God's Holy Spirit). This raises a couple of questions: Why does a person need to be born spiritually?...and, What is a "spiritual" birth?

The Bible teaches that man is created in the image of God. God manifests Himself to mankind in the Persons of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Likewise, mankind is composed of a body, soul, and spirit. Our body is the "tent" you could say of the soul and spirit (the body is a temporary dwelling place). Our soul is composed of the heart (to feel), the mind (to think), and the will (to decide). Our spirit is dead in sin when we are born; that is, we are born void of God. No person is ever born with God. The only exception is the Lord Jesus Christ Who came as God in the flesh (1st Timothy 3:16). Our spirit is dead in trespasses and sin the Bible says...

"And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:" -Ephesians 2:1,2

The unsaved person cannot understand God...

"But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." -1st Corinthians 2:14

The reason why you need to be "spiritually" born is because you have never been spiritually born to begin with. So when the Bible speaks of being "born again," it actually means "born for the second time." You were born physically into this world, but you were born without the Spirit of God in your soul (spiritually dead). Yes, God created you, but He gave you a freewill to decide for yourself where you will spend eternity. God never forces anyone to accept Christ as their Saviour, He simply offers a warm invitation to anyone who wants to have their sins forgiven and go to heaven. Salvation is a free gift paid for by the shed blood of Jesus Christ, but we must accept it or it WILL be forever forfeited when we leave this world (die).

To be "spiritually" born means that God's Holy Spirit "quickens" (or makes alive) your dead spirit. When you invite the Lord Jesus Christ into your heart, asking Him to forgive all your sins, then God the Father and God the Son come into your heart in the form of God the Holy Spirit (John 14:23). The "Holy Spirit" is "God with us."

I have God living in my soul, the Holy Spirit of God. I am not God, but I have God living in my heart. The Holy Spirit of God guides me, comforts me, teaches me, rebukes me, chastises me, convicts me, encourages me, empowers me, loves me, strengthens me, and so much more. The Holy Spirit of God uses the Word of God to do these things. This is why it is critically important for every believer to live in their Bible (and make sure you have a reliable Bible, I only use the King James, not the "new" King James either!). A person cannot understand the Bible without the presence of the Author...God is the Author. When you become born again (or born for the second time), then God will come into your heart (never to leave -Hebrews 13:5) and you will understand many new things for the first time in your life...

"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." -2nd Corinthians 5:17

It is ONLY through the Precious Word of God that anyone can be born-again! The second birth is very different from the first birth. Surely, no one can born into this world again physically...there is no turning back the hands of time. However, you most certainly can be born again spiritually into God's family through the Spirit of Christ ("But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his" -Romans 8:9). The way we become "born again" is found in the Word of God...

"Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever." -1st Peter 1:23

We are born again by the Word of God. Jesus is the Word of God (John 1:1,14: Revelation 19:13). The following statement sums it up pretty good...

If you're born once, then you die TWICE; If you're born twice, then you die ONCE.

If you don't invite Jesus Christ into your heart and become a born again Christian, then you will burn in hell-fire for all eternity (John 3:18, 36; Revelation 20:15; 21:8).

The GOOD NEWS (the gospel) is that it is very EASY to partake of the second birth, the spiritual birth. God came down to this earth 2,000 years ago and took upon Him the form of a man, that man was the Lord Jesus Christ (1st Timothy 3:16). Literally, the Godhead became incarnate (Colossians 2:9). Jesus was born of a virgin (Isaiah 7:14). Jesus never sinned one time (2nd Corinthians 5:21). Jesus died, was buried and rose again after three days (1st Corinthians 15:1-4). Jesus shed His blood for our many sins (Colossians 1:14).

There are a few things you must know to be saved:

1. You are a sinner (Romans 3:10,23).

2. You deserve to go to hell to pay for your sins (Romans 6:23; Revelation 21:8).

3. Jesus Christ, God in the flesh (God's Son), died upon the cross to pay for your sins (John 3:16-18; Romans 5:8).

If you believe that Jesus is the Saviour (the Christ) Who paid for your sins, and you realize your sinful condition enough to see your need for a Saviour, then you are ready to be born again. All that remains for you to do is to personally ask Jesus Christ to forgive your sins and to come into your heart as your own personal Saviour. It matters not exactly what you pray, just as long as you realize these two main truths:

1. You are a sinner!

2. Jesus is the Saviour!

You might pray something like this...

Dear Jesus, I know that I am a hell-deserving sinner. I believe that you are the Son of God, the Saviour, Who died upon the cross to pay for my sins. I now believe upon You as my personal Saviour, and ask you to please forgive me of all my sins. Please save me and take me to heaven when I die. Amen.

If you sincerely asked Jesus to forgive your sins, then you are now part of God's family. You could have just prayed, "God be merciful to me a sinner." The thief on the cross simply asked Jesus to "remember" him, and Jesus most certainly did. There is nothing "magic" about the words you pray, it is your faith (trust) in Jesus Christ that saved you. It is your faith that caused you to call upon Jesus to forgive you of your sins and take you to heaven. God wants to save you more than you could ever want to be saved. If you were sincere, then you are now a born-again Christian. Thank God!

Salvation is very simple. We are sinners, and Jesus is the Saviour. You see friend, there is no religion involved here, ONLY Jesus. Salvation is NOT found in a religion, but in a Person---The Lord Jesus Christ.

May God bless you,

"Therefore as by the offence of one (Adam) judgement came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one (Jesus Christ) the FREE GIFT came upon all men unto justification of life" Romans 5:18

"NEITHER IS THERE SALVATION IN ANY OTHER: FOR THERE IS NONE OTHER NAME UNDER HEAVEN GIVEN AMONG MEN, WHEREBY WE MUST BE SAVED". Acts 4:12.

Think about That, Is there any other Religion or philosophy on earth that teaches this? That is, That the whole problem lies with each of us, I mean, All of the worlds problems, All the worlds injustices, horrors and EVILS, could be summed up in one word SIN!! No! they all (to one degree or another)say that either, "We are in and of ourselves Divine!! And therefore in no need of a Saviour!, And we're all just waiting to take that Quantum Leap! (( Yeah, Right!)) OR, They teach that we have to somehow save OUR SELVES! That is, By playing by some set of rules, or by keeping some list of commandments, Or By just trying to live a "Good Life", Then we're somehow "Doing our part" in earning ( or, MAINTAINING ) our own Salvation!! Sorry, but none of the above,"Ain't gonna get none of us outta this MESS!" The following is what Jesus said Is the ONLY WAY out ( or should i say, UP! )

THAT IF THOU SHALT CONFESS WITH THY MOUTH THE LORD JESUS, AND SHALL BELIEVE IN THINE HEART THAT GOD HATH RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD, THOU SHALT BE SAVED. ROMANS 10:9.

.."#000099">The Greatest Commandment
Matthew 22 (King James Version) Vs. 34-40

34. But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together. 35. Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying, 36. Master, which is the great commandment in the law? 37. Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38. This is the first and great commandment. 39. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.Shower the people
----- "WHEN IT COMES TO RELIGION, JUST SAY NO!!" " Don't give me that "Old time Religion, Or the New Age one neither"

Matthew 7:20 Jesus said, " Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

Galations 5:22 "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith", "This is how to recognize a TRUE BELIEVER", not by the clothes they wear, how they look, or what eat, or drink, or what Church they walk into, Or, Don't walk into! If they call themselves Christians can the following be said about them...., John 13:35 35. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. And how about those of us who have taken His name ( Christ-ian), Or, have we "Taken His name IN VAIN"??...Hmm.. I'm saying, When it comes to being a Christian, " It's all about the Love"...

" The Law of Love"

Romans 13:8-10 8 . Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.

9. For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

10. Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.

James 2:8, 8. If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well: Galations 5:14 14For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

"Every time i tried to find some set of rules,or laws, or commandments, or ordinances or WHATEVER, that we as Christians are to live by so as to be "Good Christians" it ALWAYS came down to the same thing"..

IT"S ALL ABOUT THE LOVE!

1 God + 1 + Me + EVERYONE else = One Love.

"CHARITY" = LOVE
[i.e. Agape ]

1 Corinthians 13 1. Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

2. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.

3. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.

4, Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is notpuffed
up,

6.Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

7. Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; . Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

8. Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

9. For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

10. But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.

11. When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

12. For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

13. And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

James 1:27 27. Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

"Don't want no Old Time Religion or NO New Age Religion neither"!!

There's only One faith, One commandment, One Law and that's the Law of Love! And there's only One God, One Saviour, The Lord Jesus Christ, and don't even try to get me to add anything to either one! "True Christianity isn't a Religion it's a RELATIONSHIP of LOVE, to and from God and to our neighbors", period! AND THE SECOND YOU ADD ANYTHING ELSE TO IT, THAT SECOND IT BECOMES A RELIGION, AND YOU CAN HAVE IT..........

I'd like to meet:

Jesus , I know Him in spirit, But i can't wait to meet Him Some Day when i get my "glorified" body and i'll be able to look at Him Face to face! How-bout-you? OH, you say you don't know HIM? well, I've got some GOOD news and i got some Bad news:

The BAD news is; "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of GOD,(Romans 3:23)

But, the GOOD news is "For WHOSOEVER shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved". (Romans 10:13)

So what the HELL ya waiting for?, (if you haven't already done so) Just DO IT!! you'll feel soooo much better. I gar-un-tee........... http://i3.. ..I edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts!

Wake-up America! You need to listen to Alex Jones!*** MUSIC? I LOVE MUSIC, all kinds of music, rock, pop, country, soul, heavy metal, alternative, rap, ANYWAY, the problem is music, (like everything else in this old world) can be used for GOOD or EVIL. After all, Lucifer(Satan) was the first "MASTER MUSICIAN" (read, Ezekiel 28:13) And don't doubt for one second that he doesn't use his talents and INFLUNCES, towards his own EVIL ends! Now, Paul the apostle said,"All things are lawful unto me, But all things are not expedient:(helpful) all things are lawful for me, but i will not be brought under the power of any." So, let The Holy Spirit be your guide and be careful out there, NUFF SAID.......

Revelation 13

1And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. 2And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. 3And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. 4And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? 5And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. 6And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. 7And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. 8And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. 9If any man have an ear, let him hear. 10He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints. 11And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. 12And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. 13And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, 14And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. 15And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. 16And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. 18Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

The answer to 9/11 is in building seven... it fell and was not hit by a plane. In fact the owner, Larry Silverstein admitted on PBS that they decided to demolish it because it was on fire. Now answer this... when did they plant the bombs in building seven? While it was on fire? No. The answer is, the same time they planted them in the twin towers. Weeks before. The truth is what hurts.
