Not with you. You have no understanding of either. It is a worthless exercise.

OK, whatever. I am curious. Since you said that you are not a Christian and this is the Christianity Board, why are you even here?

No, being born again is not divine revelation. No, there is no such scripture. I did. That you lack the ability to know and understand the scripture I posted is not something that I can do anything about. Given that you really do not understand even what it means to be born again, I will...

I don't think you are the sort of person that I should even give an answer to that question. And precisely which fruit, or lack thereof, are you looking for? What fruit have you that fits the scripture you quoted? Your egotism? Your self-righteousness?

I said that you, nor anyone else today, receives divinely inspired revelation from the Holy Spirit. To be born again is to receive the indwelling Holy Spirit.

Yes, of Course. 1Pe 1:23 since you have been born again, not of perishable seed but of imperishable, through the living and abiding word of God; I think that is what I just said.

You have so much to learn but probably won't. You constantly refer to 1 Peter 1;23. The imperishable seed that you hang your hat on is not a reference to anything about you. It is not a reference to the regenerated one, but rather the one doing the regeneration. But no doubt you will disagree...

No, here the context says that the natural man is the man that is not divinely inspired as is Paul and the other apostles and prophets. Any who had the mind of Christ would have no need at all of any of the Bible. That is no one here are any place else today.

It is not any righteousness from Him that condemns me as you have done.

My fruits? What an arrogant, self-righteous old biddy you must be.

You view of Revelation 20:4 is as follows, Rev 20:4 Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom the authority to judge was committed. Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and the souls of those who had not...

But that is not what John says. That may be what you want him to say, but it is not.

No it is a distinction demanded by the Greek grammar.

I didn't say that.

He is saying that Paul and the apostles and prophets speak by divine revelation through the Holy Spirit.

No you haven't. Born again is not even mentioned in those scriptures. That is just your opinion and that isn't worth much as far as I am concerned. And the born again are Christians and the Christians are born again.

As you always say, prove that from Scripture.

There is not even the words "born again" in those verses you wanted to discuss. So obviously it doesn't say we must be born again. You always discuss by your human intellect to me, as we can see on this thread.

It doesn't say that one born again is not a Christian. That is just your opinion, and a bad one at that Go ahead and discuss it. If necessary, I might respond to show you where you are wrong. But I have already shown you that you are wrong about 1 Corithians 2 in my reply #63

Show me where God says a Christian is not born again....You won't find it. It is not there.
