The only requisite to be shown by a person in order to attain Rebirth through Jesus' Death and Resurrection is this:
"For this saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones."
This is saying God lives only with people who are contrite and humble. The only means of rebirth is through belief in Christ's death and Resurrection as the incarnate Son of God by first becoming contrite and humble, usually through defeat by sin, and by becoming desperately starved for Jesus. God cannot be seen or approached, but Jesus can.
No rebirth and righteousness will occur from:
1.) Confession of particular sins.
2.) Baptism in water.
3.) Obedience to Mosaic Law.
4.) Obedience to Jesus' Comnands.
5.) Having correct Scriptural knowledge.
6.) Acknowledgement of God's greatness.
7.) Worshipping Jesus.
8.) Speaking about God's Word.
9.) Successfully using Jesus' name for casting out devils, prophecying, doing miracles.
10.) Living in simplicity and prudence.
11.) Trying to not sin.
12.) Reading and Memorizing Scripture.
13.) Giving good things to needy people.
14.) Forgiving all sins of others.
15.) Adding Jesus as an option to our existing life.
