So a person who gets baptized is also "born again"?

Ok, so you agree with me that a person can be a follower of Christ, aka "Christian", without being "born again". Am I understanding you correctly?

Why do you believe that I'm not baptized?

What was it exactly that I said about "denominations"?

Not really. I guess I've just always believed in God from my earliest memories of childhood. I guess I was just blessed.

Thank you. Is it POSSIBLE that one can proclaim the following but not be born again? Jesus is Lord! I believe in Jesus. I believe that Jesus is the Christ. I believe that Jesus sacrificed himself on the cross to save ALL people. I believe in Jesus's commandments and strive to follow them...

Dan, In one verse the KJV says that some people go away into forever punishment. Another KJV verse says that Jesus IS the savior of ALL people. The KJV contradicts ITSELF. So which verse is correct and which verse was mistranslated? Matthew 25:41 King James Bible And these shall go away...

Great stuff. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks.

Being "born again" is something that happens to and for us; it's not something we can do to ourselves. Countless well-meaning preachers have asked people to be "born again" by accepting Jesus as their savior. Upon doing so, some then go out and proclaim that they have been "born again".
