One must understand from the heart what being added to the Kingdom of Christ through being born of God's imperishable, incorruptible seed means.One must understand from the heart/ spirit, what being Born Again of imperishable seed means...you cannot read and understand the Living seed of God in the human intellect.
The seed of God is His Living Holy Spirit....once Spirit gives birth to spirit...it can NEVER be undone...therefore as His word says....a Born Again has been Born Again of imperishable/ incorruptible seed, that LIVETH and ABIDETH FOREVER....the Spirit LIVETH and ABIDETH FOREVER in the HEART of HIS SPIRITUAL CHILD....not in the human intellect...Never ever will His Spirit leave our spirit...we have been saved from eternal damnation..once we have received that very,very PRECIOUS seed into our heart, where it will grow and flourish because it was planted by God’s Living Spirit..
My opinion/ testimony/ belief..100%.

Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
In the Word of God is everlasting life. Jesus is the bread of life who came down from heaven. If you do not abide in Him, you will die. It's not my words, but the Word of God, which all need to believe from the heart, or else we run the risk of not remaining in the Word and falling away, just like Adam and Eve did.
"If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered. And they gather and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you shall ask what you will, and it shall be done to you." -- John 15:6-7.
We all need to understand from the heart that in order to be brought into the Messiah's Kingdom, we must be born again of the Spirit of God.
"There is one body and one Spirit, even as you are called in one hope of your calling, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is above all and through all and in you all." (Ephesians 4:5).
It's not my word, but the Word of God. Jesus is the bread of life and HE says that if anyone does not abide in Him, that one will die.
We can only understand this from the heart. It's not only the Spirit that brings about our everlasting life. It's the Spirit and the Word. We cannot leave the Word out of it, and claim that we are born of the Spirit, therefore cannot die when the Word of Christ tells us otherwise.
We can either accept the Word of Christ, and believe it from the heart, or we can reject it. If we do not believe the Word that says "You will surely die" and reject it we run the risk of falling away and believing the lie that says "You will not surely die".
