What is this ‘Born Again’ requirement? Is not once ‘Born Without Consent’ not sufficient?

Question

Man-made theories do more harm to faith and Christianity than anything else. I believe in God that is supreme in the Universe, but without man-made decorations and descriptions; but I do not have faith in holy epics. Most of my questions get quotes from it. Why all of us do not utilize our own God-gifted intelligence than depending on age-old antics. Our conclusions may not be right, but that does not prevent us from applying our thoughts. Kindly do not take me either as an atheist or an arrogant being.

Dear Yahoos:
It Is The Night:
"High Honour Is Thy Due, E.,
Yet No Man Doth Thee Honour, As Were
Right." Taken From "The Tyrannies Of Central Greece".

Deem IT Others Also - Nimit, Who Seeks Through "Age-Old Antics".

HedgeWitch, The Sweetest
TeaGun, The Lamb
For The Celtic Soul:
Lisa Has The Best Answer.

However: "This Is An Urgent" Matter For The Catholic Church:
"Only"/First. IT Should Be Made Known To The Vatican:
"SVP" That Qs Are Finally Being "Born Without Consent".

Was "Baptised" A Roman Catholic. Still Would Hold To It. "Who Knows ?": Had IT Not Being For The Fact That Lisa Says:
Elsewhere, She Is Not A Xian, Would Give Her Many Plus Here. Who Knows If She Is IN FACT:
"Right".
At This Point: "Believe Her": That "Birth Defines".
We Have: "Physical Proof". After All "What Seems, Is Not..."
Verifiable All these strange "behaviour"/spiritual "theories...
I Believe In ...Universe". To Quote/Echo Your Words.

Also: "Adam & Eve": That Myth ... Is The false Support of
Far Too Many 'egotistical', Yet few 'well-off' Gents.
That Is What: "Is Confusing" Our 'Sufficiency'.
Perhaps: The Pope "May" Say 'something' About IT.
There Was A time: "They Would Not" say So.
IT Is Too Late for...
One Never Knows Nimit... What 'Others' May/May not Do? Conclude: "IT Is An Overdue" Matter. IT is A Very Serious
'Violation' For All Concerned To "Cover IT" Up Still In the Year 2007, When C-Sections Are "The Highest" They Have EVER Been In World's History. Neither "The Divine" Nor Free Women Are The "Culprits". Fear & 'Applied' Manipulation Are. Of Course: "Exceptions".
However: "It is an Exceptional" Hoax - No Longer.
According To "Classical Midwifery" Verifiable "Descriptions"
To Use An "Echo".

To Use The "Bull-Eye" Of A Woman - An Educator - In DC:
"Everyone Knows": She Is Too Busy "With Epics" To Be Writing A Book Presently: ( Will Keep Innovative "Mrs Fixer"'s Name & Newspaper in Q. "Apart" Of Vatican's Quarters. Here):
"We Are a 100-percent compliance-oriented culture, but we're not in compliance with anything". Free Publication With Too
Many 'contradictions' In Itself - And No Nimit:
"You Are Not At All" Arrogant.
"Too" True ?

Latest "Edit": "Are You" Jesus ?
Jesus Would Not "treat" Anyone With Contempt.
Assume "He Would TREAT" People - He Would Have Been A "Good Teacher" - at spelling also - But "Capitals" Are Reserved.
However: "You Begin A Sentence" By A "Capital"Here. IT Complies With Honouring All Those "Who Wrote 'Terms' Down" As 'best as They
Could'. Jesus Was A Loner Too. He Treated Everyone With
Compassion, Respect, "As An Equal". One Could Say:
"He Was A Humanist".
Would "NEVER Have Induced Anyone Into Error" When IT
"Mattered".
So: "Q. For Jesus: For If You "Symbolize Jesus", Then Answer:
"Why Did So Many Women And Men"
See/C The "Immaculate Conception" For A Human-Physical-
Spiritual Start. No Question Mark Added. "Honour" [a-la-Celt}.
So: Before "Harming": Alouette Du Miroir - French Yahoo &

Eh "Boom !" A Great "Number" French Fan - "A Sort" Of A Demise Now "Wants" To Be Recognized -
"Affectation Or Love" ? The French Fans Want To Q.
Good Q. For Us: "Nimit: Ask 'anybody' The Famous Q." And You'll Know/
Know "More or Less" Who/What Believes In "Promises".

"Full Proof " Test: Jesus Had A sense of Humour. Don't You
Think ? A "Jovial" Person: "He Was of Jewish Faith".
So: "Can't say for sure" but Won't Mention "The Famous Magic" Words Now - Like Obelix: "F.C. Fell Into The Magic Potion Cauldron... "When ... Was A Baby !"
[Need To "Sleep"} Forever "Interspersed Nimit !"
Like Fan "Moderation In All Things": One "InterStellar" For
"Order's Sake".
There Are Paths. Don't Have A 'clue' What You Look Like
But: "Here We Are" - Jesus, Lisa & Whoever. Tuesday Before
"High Noon".

One Last "Mien" Nimit: Not A "Groupie" Jesus. Sometimes: "Angry
Being" With Non-principled "Men". So:
Pan 'Milady' & "The Elves" Remain " In The Electrum".
Some Need "Privacy" For Elegies. Many Are "Electrotherapeutics": They Do Not Need To "e-mail", circles ..Ego...Circles Not Intersecting "The People". On Our Profile:
Love Also Our "GentleWest" Once: "The Elves" Symbol Nimit.
They Are Braved With "Grace".

"Kindly.................As You Say.............being, like me."

"...Gifted Intelligence...": "Sleep On Your 2 Ears At Once"
Nimit, as We Say In "French: "Sleep Tight !"
No One Will/Can Steal "IT Away".
Profile IS "Dated": A "Bathyscaph" & Features "Some". So:
"Who/What ...Prevents Us ?"
We, "little-'lttle'-Bards" Of Old ? "Profile Is Dated" From March
2007 - Until Now. We Are "Bound To Know" Everything You
"Require".

"Got A Few" Answers: Nimit: Stay Clear of: "politics": Allied To that "Argon" Comes The "Legions" Of 'sorcery' - In 2007:
One Can "whisper" "Calamitous. For IT Is Within
"The Sacred
And Truth", One Finds: "The Calendar Of The Deceitful".
Just Remember: "The Magic Words" To All 'the-rapists".
Respect "Theosophy" - Not A Sect: "1. Any Various Religious
Systems That Aim At Establishing a Direct Relation Between The Individual Soul & The Divine Principle Through Contemplation And Speculation."
Now: Don't Wonder/speculate "Why" so Many Need Induced "Sleep"; And Others Only 'comforting' "Wych-Elms"...
"The Lie=Sin Is Enormous".

After Pause: "One Would Obviously" Want "To Repent".
"Whoever" One Is/Pretends To Be. Nimit: "Utilize". That's
Correct: "Wait & See" Yahoo Style:
From Now: Past 14h38: "Who Is Doin' What ?" About IT Now.
Then: "IT Won't Be Anybody's Fault", Except...
"Poor wannabee-Ol'adam & Eve ?" No One Can Hide IT Without [A BIG Laugh}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

Answer 2

Any "God" that comes from a human mind is nothing more than a mental idol. The only way that a person can know about God is for Him to reveal Himself to that person. Otherwise it's like an ant trying to understand a human from it's own observations and imagination.

God has revealed Himself through his Son, Jesus Christ and through his Holy Spirit who moved men to write with divine inspiration. You seem to be a person who is open to reason. Take some time and consider the arguments presented in this short treatise.

Answer 3

Your man made theory is what is causing the harm. In the Holy Bible in the book of John 3:3, Jesus says YOU must be Born Again. Is man smarter than God, think about this, Has man ever created anything, what? No, he has invented, but cannot create, so, God is a Much Superior Being than us, He spoke the world into existance, so I had much rather take the Bibles advice on anything than mans. I don't believe I came from a monkey, do you, I don't believe we came from a big bang, thats crazy, its obvious that their is a Supreme being, and Jesus Christ is his name. Even the jews and muslims will admit Jesus was on earth, I know he resurrected from the dead on the third day and forever opened the door to salvation to all mankind, this country was built on Godly principles, look at the rest of the world, Unfortunately the US is fading, we are slowly going away from what made us great, but some are seeing the truth, our sins maybe many, but Jesus will still wash all of them away who will turn their lives over to him and serve him. He will save you today, YOU can choose Jesus today, He can change your life if you it, the decisions yours, just pray Dear Jesus, I know and confess that I am sinner in need of salvation. I believe you died on a cross at calvery and arose from the grave to wash away my sins, I ask you right now to come into my heart and save me, I pray this Prayer believing in the name of Jesus Amen. If you prayed this prayer with a sincere heart you are now a child of God, rejoice that your name is written in the Lambs book of Life. Jesus will now send his Holy Spirit to come and live in your heart and guide you into all truth. If you made a decision for Christ or have any questions just send me an email, God Bless YOU!!

Answer 4

No, Jesus told Nicodemus that he must be born again, Nicodemus was a Pharasee, a teacher of the laws of Moses and the 10 commandments. But he believe in the miracles Jesus performed, but as a Pharasee he found it very hard to shed the teachings of Moses and the prophets, therefore Jesus told him that he must be born again as the rich man who also followed the teachings of Moses, found himself in hell. To be born again, is not the same as to be baptized, to be baptized in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit means that you believe in the Words, you believe in the Good News that Jesus brought. To be born again means just that, your heart has been harden, and because of it you will never understand the Words Jesus spoke, unless you died and are born again in a new body, with the knowledge of your past swept clean, (no new wine in old bottles)
Read Luke 11:24-26

Answer 5

We cannot come to God using intellect. We come to God via faith. The only requirement for being Born Again is faith in Jesus as Lord and Savior. Period.

Answer 6

Being saved or born returned, potential that a man or woman has own relationship with Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour. meaning a man or woman, accepts the Atonement of Jesus Christ; The Atonement is the reconciling artwork of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, in gracious fulfiilment of the loving purpose of His Father; wherein, for the duration of the scarifice of Himself upon the circulate, as quickly as for all, on behalf and rather of sinful adult men, delight grew to become into made for the sins of the international. Salvation is by making use of Grace: Ephesians 2:8-9.

Answer 7

Jesus told Nicodemus who was a Pharisee that one cannot enter into heaven unless he is born again. Born of water and spirit.

Many believe it has to do with baptism. In the book of Romans it reads:

chapter 6: 3Or don't you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? 4We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.
5If we have been united with him like this in his death, we will certainly also be united with him in his resurrection. 6For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body of sin might be done away with,[a] that we should no longer be slaves to sin— 7because anyone who has died has been freed from sin.

So when one believes, then asks God for forgiveness of sins(repents) one can be baptized which is a symbol for a death and New birth through Jesus. It's a burial of the old sinful self and a new being emerges out of the water.

Answer 8

Why not take you for what you are.........
One with out knowledge of TRUTH

For it was JESUS who said" YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN "
And its not a theory its a FACT of TRUTH
and its that TRUTH which is a FACT of Wisdom......
"" Verily, verily , I say unto thee ,Except a man be Born -Again he CANNOT SEE the Kingdom of GOD ""
""EXCEPT a man be born of water(pure water is Gods Word) and of the Spirit(Holy Ghost-spirit of God) he cannot enter the kingdom of God ""

That which is born of the Flesh is flesh; and that which is born of spirit is spirit "
" Marvel not that i said unto thee , Ye must be born again"
"" The wind bloweth where it listeth , and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh , and whither it goeth; so is every one that is born of the Spirit ""


and some other need to put there own thinking aside even with a concordance you cant see the Word of Truth
the BIBLE is a WHOLE....not a part

and the wwater of birth and a pool of water whether a creek or pond or baptismal in a church building isnt the water he speaks of..........The Water came from HIM , not our mother and not rain or faucets.........

Rightly divide the Word of TRUTH

they pierced HIM and from HIM came forth Blood and water...and HE BEING THE WORD ( made flesh and dwelt among us ) the WORD as stated in Ephesians 5:26 thats says "" That HE might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water BY THE WORD ""

Answer 9

Coming forth from the womb when your mother's water broke is the first birth.(Born of water..)now you are a relative of Adam,but you are not an adopted son of God.Only by accepting and believing what Jesus did by dying for our sins and resurrecting can one then be sealed by the Spirit of God (Born of the Spirit).Then you are "Born Again" sealed by the Spirit of God for eternity .A son of God that no one can take away.("No one comes to me unless the Father draws him to me," Jesus said,"and all that come to me ,I will in no wise cast out".)

Answer 10

its not born again. the correct translation is born from above. we as Gods children came from our Father and when we die we will go back to our Father. the born of waters that Christians talk about is not baptism it is the bag of water a baby is born in, each entity has to go through this world once.
I suggest Christians should find a Strong's concordance it will help alot in understanding the bible.
