We know that Jesus said "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."
Many, if not few, contend and insist that to be "born again" is to be baptized with water.
Can one be "born again" twice or thrice or even more?
Or
Can such rebirth spoken of by Jesus Christ be undone once done?

When Jesus was baptised by John the Baptist we see that Jesus went out for 40 days and then took on the Devil. it was this that set him out on his mission to deal with this world.
John the Baptist said that he was not worthy giving of the Baptism of Holy Spirit, that was of Jesus Christ only.
One must be water baptised to receive the Holy Spirit, as that is it's intention, no one can receive the Holy Spirit who is not water baptised.
Satanist claim that Paul was not water baptised, but many many of the Jews were water baptised by John, even tho they all did not receive the Holy Spirit, but I am sure that Saul would of been one to of been water baptised by John and Saul got the message from God and became Paul.
You must be born of the Water baptism Jesus said so.
What is water baptism, well it was one taking it on yourself pre Christianity or one who was not brought up in the faith by family, but if one was born in a true Christian family you would of been water baptised as a baby because as such you are in the community of Christ Jesus, fact is that any worthy Christian would baptise their children in fact, so that's why one goes to Church with ones children, this is in the hope that they recive the Holy Spirit, that's the number one point of getting water baptised and going to Church.
One does not receive the Holy Spirit until one is truly born again.
One is water baptised first and then one learns from religious instruction, but the hope is for one to receive the Holy Spirit, now some receive X amount of gifts as to the Holy Spirit but that does not mean that they are truly born again, because they can fail as to the weeds of this world choking them, stunting their growth in Christ.
So one could say one is in regard to one born again of the water and one can be born again of the Holy Spirit, their is a trans stage from faith in Jesus = as Jesus says, oh you of little faith ? that's most believers by far and then their is they of faith that can move mountains = truly born again. it's they that are in the Kingdom of God = not of this world lead astray of worldly deceptions, they are sent out among the wolfs in this world.
Now we can see the being water baptised is not the key ingredient but it's the start of, like a marriage day somewhat, but such things are more than that day, because one works towards making a marriage work and so to does one as to a baptism, it's not just a one off day experience, your God mother and God father have set task to help one on the path to the Lord Jesus, just as your family does.
Now if the mother and dad just get the child baptised and claim that that's all they have to do. that's wrong. that's like sending a child off to school on the first day and then dismiss any regard to ones upbringing. or one sending children off to Church and not doing your duty as to them.
