This is how the ancient early church interpreted it and that's what I believe

You agree that born of water is an obvious reference to baptism. You really disagree that the rest of the chapter being about baptism. What do you think the rest of the chapter is about? To answer your question, i think being born of the spirit means we receive the Holy Spirit. Just as God's...

@Lambano @SavedInHim @Rockerduck @Debp Hello brothers and sisters My opinion is not a popular one but it is the opinion that was/is held by the early church, interpreted by the ancients. I believe that born again refers to baptism. - We see in John 3:22 that Jesus did baptise and we see in...

That's a good way to put it. I don't believe anyone has 100% certain knowledge, and the ones who claim to know everything are the ones I'm skeptical about the most. And so I admit that I don't know everything, I don't understand everything, I just know that God exists and therefore I have...

What does this term "born again" mean to you? And how can you be sure you are "born again"? How does "water and spirit" apply to your understanding of being born again? The term comes from the conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus in John 3. What do you make of the fact that the rest of...

Reading all of these different opinions confuses me. I just don't get it

Hi there. I'm actually from Melbourne, born and raised. Just living in Adelaide at the moment, travelling and working around Australia, it's a cool city. France and Spain look good, so do Argentina and Brasil but remember, they haven't played any good teams yet and anything can still happen on...

Darwins ideas are outdated and have since been proven to be incorrect. All living organisms didn't not evolve from a single common ancestor and no new species has ever evolved from another species. They were all just assumptions invented by atheists eager to disprove God and have since been...

Some kids of this generation could do with the good old fashioned cane. Also a big problem with modern day science is that there is often a conflict of interests.

In Australia Husband "I'm taking the dog for a walk dear" Wife "Be careful for kangaroos and koalas" In America Husband "I'm taking the dog for a walk dear" Wife "Be careful for mountain lions and grizzly bears" Husband "I think I might just stay home" :shockedx

That was cool but if I went there I would prefer to be with a guide so they can explain everything to me and I can ask them questions

Hey that was my thread. LoL. I think it's a matter of parenting style. I started that thread thinking it was OK to spank your child. Then I changed my mind to it's not ok. In the end I changed my mind again and thought that it's ok under certain circumstances.
