He that is rich answers roughly: go learn what that means if you can.

You have got to be kidding I think...this is a joke.You may teach others this doctrine, and they may believe you: but me, you can not fool.

Do you ever recognize any brothers or sisters in Christ? Do you always immediately attack others without cause? Do you ever read the posts of others before dismissing them as in error or as your enemies?"Woe unto you, ye blind guides"
"Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?"

What do you know of me? I received the baptism of the Holy Ghost before you were born to your natural mother.The spirit that is in you is the same spirit that murdered Christ: which is the spirit of man.

There is an old man being killed by the new man being nourished by the Word and the Holy Spirit. Why do you continue to attack without cause?

You know nothing at all!I know who I am dealing with.
Isaiah 54:17 King James Version (KJV)@TheWind
I guess you are really not interested in having a discussion. I will leave you to your own foolish purposes.
I know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.You know nothing at all!

It is a small thing with me to be judged by a man.Be careful....very careful...your self-love is getting in the way of God's commands to love others...and even esteem others as higher than yourself. As long as you are protecting yourself...even a legitimate part of yourself which is the inner man, you will be causing offense to others in the Body...like a cancer cell.
Self-love is self-centered even as it seeks to protect an intimate knowledge of God. So it is the opposite of perfect love...where we lay down our lives for others. It is not Christ-like at all. Agape love is sacrificial...not defensive of self. So you have fallen into a trap.
You are immature in the greatest way....because you don't yet know yourself.
Change your attitude. Look beyond your self-love.
This may take you a long time to realize because of pride.
You were given an opportunity to gracefully admit that you were wrong, but you turned around and accused me of pride and blindness. So now we know for a fact that you are here to promote false teachings clothed in religious garb. That is is how the ministers of Satan appear.
The new birth happens through baptism.
Galatians 3:26-27 King James Version (KJV)
26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
27 For(BECAUSE) as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ(THE SON OF GOD).
Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead: Which is to say, through the faith of the Resurrection, which is the operation(work) of God.
And so being raised with him through baptism the scripture below is applied, that is the day they were begotten of God: Children of the Resurrection: born from the dead.
Acts 13:33 King James Version (KJV)
33 God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
As it is written:
There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:
The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: BECAUSE no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the SPIRIT of God.
Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of THE WOMB and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the SPIRIT of God.
That which is born of A WOMAN is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit: YOU CANNOT TELL THAT THEY ARE FROM HEAVEN AND THAT THEY ARE GOING TO HEAVEN.
Friend, the falling away happened a long time ago. You were baptized three times by a man without the Spirit of God: all three baptism's were void.I was baptized three times with water and still wasn't born again. But then when I was around 30 I saw I was powerless to not sin and truly repented of my sinful nature, and Jesus baptized me with the Holy Spirit. The new birth is becoming Spirit filled receiving power from on high.
Matthew 3:11
I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.
