As a child I had a situation that God revealed unto me that there was a difference between people that went to church he showed me that there were people that just went and some belonged. Not until1980 we started going to this one church and went there for about 2 years and then just didn't have anything to hold me there. But in 1990 while I was working underground God started dealing with me to go back to church well when I got home that night we went and they had a good service but nothing happen so the next day at work God dealt with me again to go to church. Well got home and my wife said what are going to do tonight and I said go back to church, while the preacher was preaching God started really dealing with me and before I knew it I was out of my seat and in the floor praying and asking God to forgive me of my sins and that is when the Holy Spirit started really dealing with me study pray and seek for his knowledge, wisdom, and understanding of his word and seeking the truth of it. This were I say that a person has to have an experience with God in order to be saved.

I completely understand this myself. A few years ago ...I was so smug In the fact that I believed In God. Him being the Almighty Creator of heaven & earth and all things In It. Also I believed that Jesus Christ died on a cross and rose again on the third day. I was feeling so good about my firm beliefs (God hates self righteousness). I was given a reality check. I'll never forget It ! God quickened me In my spirit. Even the demons believe ! The only difference Is.They don't Obey and do the will of My Father. They are the only ones that will enter Into the Kingdom of Heaven. I Immediately repented of my self righteous thinking. God Is so loving,patient ,kind..just to name a few of His Ways. You have to give your WHOLE heart to Jesus. You'll never be sorry ! It's been an adventure that never stops. Being a Christian Is about Committment. Blessings to you Miss Eaglewings & Miss Shirley...

properly, i imagine that Christianity is complete of hateful human beings. Christians at present are only like the Pharisees of Christ's day. they imagine 1 and all might want to keep on with their own guidelines. this isn't how God operates. i'm no longer deluded in wondering that i understand or understand God. I do the perfect that i visit and pass the position i believe that God leads me. certain, hateful christians are why a lot of human beings choose no longer to be christian. isn't it impressive that as A catholic christian i'm attacked extra by utilizing protestant chrisitans than i'm attacked by utilizing non christians! it is gloomy, and not what Christ had in ideas for his church.

unfortunately, i can't follow your question - can you add some more details....
being reborn in my opinion is finding God and wanting to live your life according to His teachings - doing the right thing, which is not always the easy thing.

Being saved means accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior. If you have faith that Jesus died on the cross for our sins you will be saved. Make sure you study the Bible. There are many who misinterpret the meaning of the Bible, and therefore believe it to be false. It is up to you to find the truth by reading and studying the Bible and ultimately through this, you will know God and what He expects of you.

when you are reborn in christ you give your life to him and say that you will try not to sin. when you do sin you can always ask God to forgive you and he will when you ask for forgiveness. God is omniscience meaning He knows everything so be baptized and believe

st paul says we are "being" saved, like a process. the bible does not say once your saved your always saved. It says if you sin you must repent, no fornicator, adultress, liar, murderer, shall enter heaven, and nothing defiled shall be able to enter heaven, he says Unless you become as a little child, you shall not enter heaven, Unless you become holy, you shall not enter heaven, Unless you are born again you cannot enter heaven which is baptism, Jesus told the apostles to go forth teach the good news baptising them in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy spirit.

† Titus 3:5
he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit,
† So, what are we doing when we are being submerged in Holy Water? "WE ARE BURYING THE DEAD, hon."
We leave the past behind and we are made new!
-Amen.
-God Bless.
