How many times can a Christian be "born again" before God starts rolling his eyes?

Answer 1

Well, Jesus himself said in the parable of the lost sheep that God rejoices more over the sheep that strayed than over the ninety-nine that did not stray…. so I suppose if you’d really like to make God happy, you have to stray at least once. (So, born again... stray.... born again again.)

It’s not clear, however, whether that ought to be limited to one straying per sheep, or if each sheep ought to strive to get in as much straying as possible in the allotted time.

(I can just hear God saying “Jesus Christ! Go to your room until you can learn to be clear!”)

Since the original source material doesn’t give an answer, I’ll go with an alternate source and say: 42.

Answer 2

You must have a reason for asking this question?

Is it that you see the same people going up to the alter again and again.

Is it that you see the same preaching of how to be born again and the people never grow beyond that.

A True Christian is Born Again one time and that is that.
He will also leave a Church that continually preached how to be Born Again. He doesn't need to hear that again and again.

Answer 3

"You are born "once" naturally ! You are born again once in the Spirit of God . A false profession of faith in being born again is only a worldly statement used by man that has truly not accepted the Lord as his Savior and changed from his sinful ways to truly live for the honor and glory of the Lord .. Man makes the same mistake in the same way this question is asked about God ' rolling His eyes , assuming that God will do the things a man will do . God is not on our level , He is above it . ... Genesis 3 : 19 .. In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread , till thou return unto the ground ; for out of it wast thou taken :( born naturally once ) for dust thou art , and unto dust shalt thou return ( die naturally once )..... 1 John 11 :12..And this is the record , that God hath given to us eternal life ( Born Again , once ) , and this life is in his Son . " He that hath the Son hath life ; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life ............

Answer 4

God seeks true repentance, not a bunch of memorized prayers or meaningless words.

And as far as "once saved always saved" how does that make sense?

Does that mean all those child molesting priests are going to heaven?

That is SO not the God of the bible.

Answer 5

I do thank God earlier I acquire; yet each and every time I ask for some thing, i attempt to wish that God will provide to me what his will is for me. Then I thank God that His will is going to be finished. i am going to't consistently have self assurance that what i choose is extremely the right, yet comprehend that His will is.

Answer 6

Twice. Born from mother's womb and born of the spirit in the bible.

Answer 7

How many times can you be born from the womb? Once saved always saved!!!! There is nothing in this world you can do to stop your mom and dad from being your mom and dad. It's the same with the Lord once you are one of his children you will always be!!!

Answer 8

You are only born again once.

Answer 9

God doesn't roll his eyes....there is such rejoicing in heaven over the salvation of just one soul.

God wants all of us to spend eternity with him.

Answer 10

Ten Evidences That Someone's
Been Born Again.
I. SUBMISSIVE RESPECT
"If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us" (1 John 1:8)
Do you respect God? Is your opinion just as important or even more relevant than His? Are God's pronouncements authoritative in your life? Is Jesus Christ your Lord?
II. SCRIPTURE OBEDIENCE
"But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him" (1 John 2:5)
Do you read the Bible daily? Do you read the Scriptures seeking to obey what you find? Are you in rebellion against God's Word or in submission to it? Do you love the Bible?
III. SOCIETAL REJECTION
"Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him" (1 John 2:15)
Do you love the world, your money, and your possessions? Do they mean more to you than Jesus Christ and His approval? Would you be willing to give up all for Christ?
IV. STEADFAST FAITHFULNESS
"They went out from us, but they were not of us: for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us" (1 John 2:19)
Are you faithful in regular fellowship with God's people in a local church? Are you able to be sparse in church attendance for weeks at a time without any real guilt about it? Do you long for fellowship with the saints in the assembly?
V. SECOND COMING ANTICIPATION
"When he shall appear, we shall be like him: for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure" (1 John 3:2-3)
Are you living in the daily awareness that Jesus Christ will return for His own? Are you eagerly looking forward to His coming for you? Does your daily life reflect the fact that He may come today? Are you ready to meet Him at any time?
VI. SIN SENSITIVITY
"Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God" (1 John 3:9)
Does your sin bother you? Do you wish you sinned less than you do? Are you sinning less now than when you first made a profession of faith in Christ? Do you enjoy your sin, or does it affect your happiness? Do you realize God sees all sin?
VII. SIBLING LOVE
"We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death" (1 John 3:14)
Do you love other believers in Jesus Christ? Do you enjoy being in their company, or would you rather be with the people of the world? Are Christians your dearest friends?
VIII. SUPPLICATIONS ANSWERED
"And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight" (1 John 3:22)
Do you pray? Can you point to specific answers that could have come from no one but God? Do you find yourself conversing regularly with God as a trusted friend?
IX. SHARP DISCERNMENT
"Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world" (1 John 4:1)
Do you find it easy to sort out the claims of various religions? Do you see all religions as the same? Do you understand the doctrine of Christ? Do you believe Jesus Christ is God?
X. SPIRIT AWARENESS
"Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit" (1 John 4:13)
Do you have a conscious awareness that the Holy Spirit of God lives in you? Does He teach you things from the Scriptures on a regular basis? Does the Holy Spirit convict you when you sin, or can you sin with abandon?
