A human being must die before death in order to be "born again" or "born anew"
This means the ego within man must be subdued!
Then a new being will appear and not carrying the baggage of the old being.
The true religion within all religions teach this same thing. As an example Buddha told all of his students that they must be "twice born".
This would be excellent for all human beings.........

True, to be a Christian is to be "born again", so it is redundant.
Nicodemus in the Bible had a hard time understanding the need for a second birth. It took him some time to understand that he needed to be born of God's Spirit (receive life from God).
