    How Can a Person Be Born Again?

    Let's return to Romans Chapter 8 and read it with some understanding. Romans 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. 10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because...

    How Can a Person Be Born Again?

    Let's take a look at man's potential if Adam didn't listen to Eve. It's written in Psalms 82:1 God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods. 2 How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah. Who are these mighty ones that God...

    How Can a Person Be Born Again?

    Ok, but as for me I'll keep things simple as it is written the word of God, because as we no, Paul says "...work out your own salvation with fear and trembling" (Philippians 2:12).

    How Can a Person Be Born Again?

    I would say unnecessary confusion. Because you don't need to quotes a greek word that suppose to say exactly the same word as the Holy Spirit. Just say Holy Spirit and grab a quote from the Bible to help with the point. Using greek words that you can't fine in the Bible cause confusion. Its...

    How Can a Person Be Born Again?

    You said, "The Paraclete is a special operation of the Holy Spirit." What I would quote from the Bible is to "repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost." (Acts 2:38). This Holy Ghost or Holy...

    How Can a Person Be Born Again?

    When Thomas called Jesus God was he still a man? Take a look at this verse in the book of Numbers. Numbers 23:19 God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? Or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? Note...

    Ecclesiastes (12:13) Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.

    A love based on obedience. Ephesians (5:1) Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; (2) And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour. Throughout the bible scripture upon scripture tells...

    Born again is a change in the body, not the mind. Let's take a look at this in John 3:1 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: 2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these...

    The love God requires of man, is of one will.

    One will find in the scriptures that the fundamental duty of man is to love God as well as to love his neighbor. Man has not understood the significance or the implications of not adhering to this duty. The word love in itself is beyond definition and it implies different things to different...
