Being born again is like re-crucifying Jesus all over again. Wasn't once enough? He already died for our sins...once. Once is enough. I have a sneaky suspicion Jesus is going to be reeeeeeal pissed that MAN suggests that one can be "born again" - when clearly we all received Him when he died there on that cross. Beware, fellow Catholic. You're treading on dangerous ice.

No, you are not guilty.
To my mind you are a Christian or you are not.
You believe or you don't.
I feel Denominations, for example, Catholics, Anglicans, Baptists, Methodist , Born Again Christians, just to name a few, are "man made".
All believe in God and Jesus Christ but express themselves in different ways and interpret the Bible differently in some respects.
The main thing is, do you believe in God and Jesus Christ and try to live your life the best you can, the way you think God and Jesus would like you to live.
It is the relationship you have personally with God that counts and not what "man" says.

Sweetie, I'll be perfectly honest with you, and this is just from my experience with people I've known. While a lot of people think that the Catholic church is strict, the real zealots and fanatics that I"ve met have all been Born-Again. Born-again Baptist, Born-again Methodist, Born-again CAtholic, all that I've met have been the very bible-thumping, I'm-holier-then-thou types. Now, I"m Catholic myself, but even the born-again Catholics scare me.

2 factors. a million. you are able to not tension somebody to religious perception. 2. Catholics are spiritually born back (and back and back) by: • perception in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior • residing the Gospel to the better of our means • on a daily basis rededicating ourselves to Jesus Christ • Receiving new life in Baptism • The forgiveness of sins in the process the Sacrament of Reconciliation • The infusion of the Holy Spirit by potential of the laying on of palms in confirmation • Taking the physique and Blood of Jesus Christ into our bodies in the process the Eucharist (Holy Communion) • Even in the process the penitential season of Lent those are some approaches that Catholics are spiritually born back. We oftentimes do exactly not use those words. With love in Christ.

No you are not. Repent of your Spiritual Ignorance of the past and ask for forgivness of your sins. A Christian does NOT WORSHIP images or ANOTHER PERSON. And also there is NO ONE on this earth who is instead of God as some "faiths" profess. Look at and read the very FIRST COMMANDMENT.

No you aren't guilty for a religion you were brought up in. You went to church, that's what counts and you believe in God regardless of which denomination you are in.

Guilty of what?
Great question!
Please consider these tidbits:
Jews for Jesus = Vegetarians for Hamburgers
God? He or She?
Church? Christianity? Jesus? Dying?
What is the Imacculate Conception supposed to mean?
Does Imacculate Conception have anything to do with "VIRGIN BIRTH"?
Google Imacculate Conception and learn that is NOT.
What else do you falsely believe?
Jesus, the basis of Christianity? .
If Jesus died, he could NOT have been God.
Can Gods die?
If Jesus 'died' on Friday and 'undied' on Sunday, what else besides Saturday was sacrificed?
Did Jesus give up Saturday for us?
No Eternal sacrifice, big deal for a day!
If Jesus died for our sins, there should not be any more sins, else why go through with it?.
If Jesus really DIED, he should be dead, dead, dead!
Life after death is like virginity after childbirth.
If the flesh of Jesus died, what was seen walking and talking on Sunday?
If you believe this stuff, you are not going to like the folks who don't. You want them to believe it too to validate you.
Christians want everyone to convert to their non-thinking in order to be 'saved'.
Believing and not thinking is like choosing to be lost.
P.S.

once you become a born again Christian then you seek forgiveness for whatever you may have done and it is forgiven if your heart is right and only God can judge that.
