@Patrick1966, Are there sins listed in the Bible that are stated to be wrong or unloving that you were able to repent of? For me, I no longer willfully sin but I still have sin in thought perhaps or a characteristic that is sin in me that I can't change naturally or totally yet but I can try and...

Welcome!

Yes, I think the steps/process to being born again are first to start with having faith in Jesus Christ and to being baptized, full immersion in water, being buried in Christ and then risen again anew and then once you go onto following Jesus and repenting God has to give you His Spirit inside...

@1stCenturyLady Or do you believe that the process of maturity in fruit of the Spirit will be made perfect in this life on Earth and everything including our sin in thought will be overcome, including different questions someone might ask you and you "always" know a good answer so to not hurt...

Hi all, Does "born again" mean that you simply believe in faith or simply chose to believe in faith in Jesus Christ, or does it also mean that you have to be baptized? I hope this is a simple answer. Thank you.

So do you believe that sins NOT unto death can't be changed or that certain ones can't be changed until we get to heaven? :)

Thank you so much! it sounds clear to me that it was the drawing stage.

@1stCenturyLady, what do you say is the problem with this scenario. I was once baptized and believed Jesus could be true but wasn't sure. I, after, fell away and didn't believe in Him anymore because I was not very learned (a Christian who's house was built on a rock, which stands firm, forever...

I have a question. What does "born again" mean? Does it mean that you got baptized, or does it mean you believe and have faith in Jesus Christ now? or both? Thank you!

So just for clarification, what does sin unto death- lawlessness, comprise of? Thank you 1stCenturyLady!:) this is also in line with the OP's question. Thank you sheariah07 :)

No, I know that the bible speaks of the Earth ending in fire. I was just wondering where in the bible it says that the Earth ending in fire will be "because" of the brightness of Christ. :)

I've been feeling better today too. Not restless and awful. I went out and got a few things done.

it's ok if he answers that. A little derailing is ok too and sometimes it seems like you're derailing when there's actually still a connection :)

I've wondered the same question. I believe God doesn't want us to sin willfully without a care which I no longer do but I think there's still sin that God will accept when you're still immature. For example, I have made a white lie to certain things because I didn't want to hurt the person but...

thanks for your reply, where in the Bible does it say that the Earth will end in fire because of the brightness of Christ rather than by global climate change?

Not feeling very well. Slept too much. Did exercise still though but it's still not enough! Tomorrow morning I'm going to repent and not sleep so much. I sleep because a psychiatric medication I'm still taking and not yet gotten off of makes me want to keep lying down but I have to overcome this...

for now it is sin or sin in the world and ignorance or ignorance in God's will that is causing suffering but God doesn't want anyone to perish but have everlasting life so He's still giving everyone a chance to repent and follow Him. Jesus said "follow Me". So what did He do? we have to be an...

I had a head injury. I fainted at school in physEd class for not eating breakfast and was standing and then fell, hit my head on the ground and got one spot swollen and soft, but checked in the x-ray that my brain was fine and it healed after time. So sorry you injured your head. Glad you're...

I already answered that question.:) He hasn't destroyed Satan yet because He doesn't want anyone to perish but have everlasting life so He's giving everyone a chance to repent. Are you trying to tell me not to fear that He will not wait for me unfairly? I have to get rid of one main obstacle and...

I know those answers, He returns the second time to destroy Satan and evil and death for all eternity. He hasn't returned because He doesn't want anyone to perish so He is giving everyone a chance to repent. Is that your point? I am just afraid that He won't wait for me to overcome my obstacles...
