sorry to best you but I don't need to be "born again" or "saved". luckily I got it right the first time.
as for using religion to create discipline in all avenues of your life, yes you can use a spiritual ideal for your crutch.
but, if you would just grow up and take responsibility for your childish actions, you wouldn't have to bother god to do it for you.
cmon, wouldn't you be more proud of yourself if you cleaned up your act BEFORE that interview with the BIG man?
also, I'm not exactly sure if refraining from that second big mac will constitute a fasting breakthrough towards being saved.
point is, if your too hungry to think properly then it stands to reason that all your prayers would be for god to deliver you to the closest fast food restaurant.
on a more ironic note... the evils that you refer to called drugs, drinking, & etc. ...have you thought that maybe those exact things are an unfortunate necessity for teaching someone where the correct path lies?
yet, with your years of experience and wisdom, you have concluded that all of lifes ills and problems can be cured by a can of slim fast and a couple of hail marys.
gosh, I guess were all set now. thanks dude!

Born again? get real pal you are only born once and there is no way of getting back in the womb once out of it.
As for all the who have a religious rebirth, just stuff and nonesense, If I want to be saved a chuch is the last place I would go. Look at all the paedophiles and homos that reside there waiting to prey on altar boys. Come to the church and prey (not pray).
When I was a chuch goer i had plenty of access to drugs and sex and alcohol if i had wanted either. Have you missed out on a church picnic? Sheez, I had to stop going so i could get back into a normal society!

I artwork from 8-5. in case you're actually not working or going to college then you might desire to be doing one or the different. I definitely have Tivo and use it to checklist a number of my renowned Ministers on TBN, TCC, The be conscious, and so on. be attentive to from the commencing up that when you pray, the enemy's purpose would be to distract you. the telephone or doorbell will ring, somebody willcontinual down the line with loud music, you will get somewhat sleepy, and so on. I exceedingly advise praying once you awaken interior the morning. That way, you're sparkling. You dont might desire to anticipate God once you pray. he's already there. Mark 11:24 says "as a result I say unto you What issues soever you decide on once you pray have self assurance which you acquire them and you shall have tham." There somewhat isnt any "yet yet yet" to that. Mark 11 is a solid examine besides and anybody might desire to examine it. Your prayers dont might desire to be long. as a remember of actuality that's ultimate which you get to the element pray in Jesus's call, and luxuriate on your day! desire this facilitates!!

Whoa! That's some dry cripple birth you are talking about there. I understand you can't dress a baby before it's born and so there's room for growth as soon as one is born.
I believe that deliverance IS salvation through the faith in the shed blood of Jesus whose blood cleanses from ALL sin. When one gets saved they are as clean hearted as a new-born baby is. Sanctification through the blood is after that where the DESIRES for those things you have been forgiven for are dealt with further. God doesn't want us to wallow in the mire after He cleans us up or return to the vomit. I think we shouldn't settle for anything less than plunging completely beneath the flow of Calvary's precious fountain from Emmanuel's veins.
I appreciate your witness for Christ. I agree with God all things are possible and He can break EVERY fetter and set the captives free.

Did you also know that fasting can deliver you to... hunger! I've always found the best way to quit drugs is to lose your dealer's phone number, but that's just me.
Also, there are lots of people leading happy lives that are not in need of being DELIVERED from homosexuality.

Yah, the only thing fasting has ever done for me is throw off my metabolism and make it so that I have zero energy to exercise and go to work.
I choose to stay away from drugs and drinking with something called will power, not with prayer and fasting.
Since when is homosexuality something you need to be delivered from?
I HAVE BEEN A WITNESS TO A LOT OF PEOPLE JUDGING OTHER PEOPLE'S LIFESTYLES WHEN IT'S ACTUALLY NONE OF THEIR BUSINESS..........

In line with islamic teaching it is impossible someone is born aga-
in.We will not have an reincarnation.We died and then we will live eternally in heaven or in hell after resurrection day.Before it we will be in a waiting room called alam barzah.We will be late if the short period life in this world we have many wrong doings and great sins.We have no opportunity to get back to this world after death and pay more prayer and fasting.We should pray at least 5 times a day and obligatory or compulsory fasting a month during ramadhan and on every monday and thursday as optional fasting.We should believe only in one God that is Allah and also believe in angels,prophets,holy books and life after death and God's decree on us.We should practice the insructions which have been given by Allah in the holy book and we should obey the God's prohibitions too.That is right path blessed by Allah.We can not be conceit,cheat,tell a lie,steal,kill,gamble,drug addict
,drink alcoholic and narcotics,adultery,eating non halal foods etc.We should give donation or alms for the poor and orphans
,love and help each other.,give forgiveness to other if they did something wrong to us,We should respect and appreciate each other and do not humiliate others too.We should give others the fruitful knowledges.If you have a wrong doing you should ask for forgiveness to the related person and if we have sin to Allah we should ask for forgiveness to Allah too.
If we have many more good doings than bad bad doings insya Allah we will go to heaven in the life after death.

God bless Wisdom! Lets here some more. I have incredible story's how Christ saved my soul from the powers of darkness. How he showed me things and salted me with fire. I have been disrespectful to my elders he has chosen to make me walk threw the fire. But, I love him. Truth is in Christ and it tastes sweet , except for whats about to take place. the Second coming of Christ. I have herd the Fifth trumpet sound, not to many people believe me but i said it to many. He's salted me with embers from the fires of damnation. Wisdom this is for you. If you have a fire with coals, and take tongs out and grab one, take it over to your son and let him feel the pain then place the coal back in the fire. Hell, Hades, death, "abyss were fallen angels are placed" place of burning sulfur, and finally lake of fire. whats that called? Christ Jesus Parable explains the weeds and the wheat..

Prayer and fasting are parts of other religions, and you can acheive similar results in other religions.
Though, not as many religions are as crazy go nuts about not being homosexual...

So, are you trying to tell me that God does not like people who do drugs, drink, rebel or have homosexual tendencies?
That would mean the he did not like Paul very much.
How did he get so much air time in the bible?
