To be born again means to no longer sin. Christ said "Go and Sin No More" He did not say to drink his blood or eat his flesh this abominable. You need to get the book You Mean That's in the Bible by satyaraja dasa Which tells so many mistranslations and things taken out by King Constantine. Get at krishnaculture.com Isaiah1:11,15 "To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? Saith the Lord: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts: and I delight not in the blood of bulls,or cows, or of lambs, or of goats. When ye spread forth your hands, I Willl hide Mine eyes from you: Yea when ye make many prayers, I wil not hear, for your hands are full of blood." Isaiah 66"3 "he that killeth an ox ls as if he slew a man." Why don't they preach these verses GO to http://www.essene.org for the truth on Christ go to

Many people have found traces of what seems to be God, but in all actuality, its just religion. I do not like to use the word "religion." For that is mans attempt in their best efforts to get right with God. Many different demoninations, or practices, that people follow that makes them feel like they can get in "good standing" with our creator. Thats why there are so many conflicts between these "religions" and people are fighting over it. Thats the result of tainting God's plan. We forget the reason Jesus came and died for us! He came so that we would have the true way back to the Father, and that He would establish the TRUE way of living. Thus, Christianity, which means Christ-like or little-Christ, is NOT a religion but merely the lifestyle of Christ that we are to replicate. Not by our own efforts, but made possible by the Holy Spirit in a relationship with Jesus Christ. Accept His Gift of salvation and experience the life of abundance. May the Lord Bless You Abundantly!!!

Salvation covers two main Points:
1. you get your Spirit Recreated (Saved) so you can go to Heaven
2. you can get Saved (after you are Saved Spiritually) from all of the crap satan thows out, satan Kills, Steals and Destroys.
We need to be Saved from all of That Stuff EVERDAY.
Some Children of GOD are Weak and Die Young because they don't Understand What Jesus was Saying about eating HIS Flesh and drinking HIS Blood.

The eating of flesh( unleavened bread) and blood ( communion wine) are symbolic of us taking Jesus into our spirit. Keep in mind the Thief on the Cross beside Jesus did not have time for baptism or communion, Jesus said " I say unto you today you shall walk with me in paradise"

Eat flesh? Drink blood? Sounds like cannibalism to me.

Please quote where in Scripture You found that.I really can not recall that,however as for being born-again I believe those people have misinterpreted.We are born of flesh and need to be born of spirit,I do not agree with uttering one sentence You get automatic entrance into Heaven

No where did Jesus say that if you don't eat his flesh and drink his blood will you not have salvation. Communion is doing so in "remembrance" of Him. Juice, wine, crackers, whatever, it's taking communion in remembrance of Him.

i think it's both. you have to be accepting of Christ as your Saviour - doing so by being baptized in His name. then continually coming to His table in communion. the acceptance is the initial action that brings you to the continual reactions.
having grown up in the north and living now int he south - the whole "born again" term is still "new". i think it's more for people who were lostnad now found. there are many people that have been brought up from theiryouth with a love of Christ who accepted and were already baptized. they may notuse the term born again, however, anyone who's been baptized and accepts Christ IS born again.

Your interpretation is clouded. Eating His flesh and drinking His blood means you are sharing in His suffering.

Good point. The Eucharist is offered every day but some will not accept it. Even some who are already Catholic though do not go to mass and recieve Jesus as often as they should.
