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.

Please show me in scripture that a Christian is not a Born Again? There is no where in scripture that says a Christian is not a Born Again.....it’s just your mere speculation...which is not Gods word

You tell us. Use scripture.

No. A Christian is born again, a born again is a Christian. Post Scripture to prove they are not the same.

Posting passages of scripture doesn't mean you have the slightest notion of what they mean. Everything you think about those passages is simply your opinion and only your opinion. And those opinions are usually wrong. And that is my opinion.

Clearly a lot better than you.

Since you think there is a difference between being born again and being a Christian, it is obvious that you know what either one means. that is most definitely not taught by the Holy Spirit.

You are talking about yourself. Everything you just posted is your opinion. I posted Scripture to support my case. I didn't evade anything. I posted the scripture. 1 Corinthians 3:1 is addressed to his readers. You are one of his readers. 1 Corinthians 3:1 is scripture.

You just did that yourself by posting 1 Corinthians 2. That entire chapter is Paul's defense of his divine inspiration. Your opinion about what it means is irrelevant. Paul states in verse 4, "my speech and my message were not in plausible words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit...

Paul, in that chapter is describing and defending his and the other apostles and prophets divine inspiration and revelation by the Holy Spirit. When He says "we have the mind of Christ", he is talking about himself and the other apostles and prophets who are divinely inspired. He is not...

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 those who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark...
