Yes, brother i do, "we all like sheep have gone astray , each turned to their own way" we dont have to be murderers or thieves or the like, we are born that way, & if we break one commandment is the same punishment as if we've broken them all,but
"God commended his love for us that as while we were yet sinners Christ died for us", that we non only have the birth of the flesh, but the new birth, the birth of the spirit, as Nicodemus came by night, to look for this wonderful salvation,
people are so hungry & miserable, they need the Lord. "For if in this world is our only hope, what have ye?'', that would be bad, so some people think----this is all there is, & go on about the ways they do,
yes, Sunset, our prayers go out to a lost & dieing world, ,that needs the love of our precious Saviour & Lord, Amen

That is the MAIN Problem for Many People. The Second Birth Is to be "Born - Again By the Blood and stripes Of Jesus" (I inserted that for those who don't know You Can Have a Second Birth.) God says to live a Life without Being Born-again, IS VERY FOOLISH. The second Birth > YOU will inherit Heaven. "Thank you, Jesus."

You must be born again. Who is to say he isn't referring to reincarnation. Depends on how you read it. The original told that Jesus preached reincarnation. Changes things a bit. How can you say he didn't since you really don't know. Doctrine has nothing to do with it. Jesus didn't have a doctrine. We made that up. Jesus didn't have christianity. We made that up, too. So, what did Jesus have? Not what is being taught now.

I've been born at least twice before. But I know that's not what you mean. Born again Christians scare me. You never know what they'll do to you. I know this- the cruelest most untrustworthy people that have been in my life are all "born again".

Most peoples problem is that they were born out of a bloody vagina. The only way to be pure is to not be born that way. Also, it helps if your mom magically became pregnant by someone else but it wasn't an affair.

If you have any consideration at all for your mother , you wouldn't want her to go through it again, especially now that you're grown up. Be happy to be born just once .

Yes... unless you are born again you dn't know what is to hate your parents and everybody else!
Almost everybody can be a Christian, but only very, very few make it to Heaven...
Matthew 7:13-14 (Jesus said) "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.
And of the only FEW WHO FIND the narrow gate not all of them will be able to get in...
Luke 13:23-24 (NIV) Someone asked him, "Lord, are only a few people going to be saved?" He said to them, "Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to.
On top of that you need to hate your own family to follow Jesus!
Matthew 10:34-37 niv
"Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to turn
" 'a man against his father,
a daughter against her mother,
a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—
your enemies will be the members of your own household.' "Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves a son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.
Luke 14:26 (NIV) Jesus Christ said, "If anyone comes to me and does not HATE* (*Greek=miseo=to abhor!) his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters--yes, even his own life--he cannot be my disciple."
Luke 14:33 (NIV) In the same way, any of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be my disciple.
Mark 10:28-30 (NIV) Peter said to him, "We have left everything to follow you!" "I tell you the truth," Jesus replied, "no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age [RIGHT NOW!!!] (homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields--and with them, persecutions) and in the age to come, eternal life.
The acid test comes when Jesus finds out that you are neither hot nor cold and pukes you out of his Holy Belly... (Revelation 3:16) and the Bible tells you that only a dog goes back to eat his own vomit!

It is a terrible thing to insist that your mother go through labor for the same child twice.

I think most people's problems come from the fact that other people around them are not spiritual and, therefore, are not followers of anyone's teachings or they just implement the teachings as they please and not as they were intended.
