What Is A Born Again Christian? Solving Salvation Confusion.

Born Again?

John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 4 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?

In the Book of John Jesus tells people over and over again how to Be Saved.

Salvation, How to Be Saved is All throughout the Bible. The Importance of the Book of John is that “The Man Christ Jesus, Jesus God in the flesh,” is talking one on one with people and telling them clearly how to be Saved.

When Jesus Speaks you should be Listening. I Love my Read Letter Edition Bibles. I like to see Jesus Words in Red, because Jesus words should stand out from all the other words.

Some Churches will give out the Book of John and the Book of Romans for people to read when they are doing Evangelism. Because those two Books are from Start to Finish Salvation Passages.

If you are a Soul winner you should carry some Free New Testament Bibles to hand out when you go out Soul Winning.

People always ask: “What Book in the Bible should I read first?”

I tell them: “Read the book of John over and over again until you understand it. Then read the Book of Romans over and over again until you understand it. These two Books will tell you how to be Saved. Please call me after you have read them. We can talk about Salvation, How to Be Saved.”

In Evangelism, do Not Rush people. Evangelism is all about planting seeds, talking to the same people, if possible, over and over again.

Do Not Listen to Dispensationalists. Most Baptists are Dispensationalists, they throw out 90% of the Bible.

They Throw out the Entire Old Testament. They Throw out Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Romans, Hebrews and the Book of Revelation. They say those books are All for the Jews Only.

Sure they will say you can learn from those Books. But they Falsely Claim that you can Not apply any Doctrine from those Books for the Christian Church.

Truthfully they are All over the Place on what they Teach. They will say you cannot take Doctrine from the Old Testament but when they get into a Conversation about Church Doctrine with a Christian that knows the Bible they will Always go to the Old Testament to Defend their False Doctrine.

False Baptist Teachers (It is Not just the Baptists. I mention the Baptists because they are the most Arrogant about their Bible Knowledge which is Funny / Ironic because they throw out nearly the entire Bible. Except when they are having to try to defend their False Doctrines. Then they run to the Old Testament… These Frauds are Not to be Believed because they are always contradicting themselves. They Thrive on people who are just as Ignorant as they are.) Hate the Books of John, Romans, and Hebrews.

The Books, of John, Romans, and Hebrews teach how to Be Saved and they All refute Calvinism, Dispensationalism, the Repent of Sin False Gospel.

When anyone tells you: “The Books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Romans and Hebrews are Jewish Old Testament Books…” walk away from them. If you hear this in Church, get up and walk out.

Yes, I am telling you to get up and Walk out of Church, if you are being Lied to. I have gotten my Family up more than once and walked out of Churches that were teaching Lies. We left right in the middle of the Service. Yes, this upset the Pastor’s. They made rude remarks at us as we Left…

There is Nothing Holy about a Church Building. There is Nothing Holy About a Church Service Lead by a Lost False Teacher. So yes Do Not waste your time in a Church that has a Lost Pastor.

John Chapter 3

John Chapter 3 is the Most Hated Chapter in the Bible for Lost False Teachers like, Calvinists / Baptists / Dispensationalists. These three are usually all one and the same. Most Baptists are Calvinists and Dispensationalists.

John 3:1 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: 2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. 3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 4 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? 5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. 8 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. 9 Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be? 10 Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things? 11 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. 12 If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? 13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. 14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: 15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

In the above passage John 3:1-21 Jesus is telling Nicodemus how to Be Saved.

Read this passage over and over and over again until you realize Everything Jesus is Telling Nicodemus.

Jesus is Preaching Eternal Security, Eternal Salvation.

Born Again

Born Again means Salvation is a One Time Event that cannot be undone. A Baby is Born. The Birth of a Baby is a One time Event.

Being Born Again is a One Time Event.

Just like the Birth of a Baby Salvation is a One Time Occurrence.

The Birth of a Baby happens at a specific time. Salvation happens ONLY ONCE at a Specific Time.

Salvation is Not a Process. Being Born is Not a Process that Happens Gradually over Time. Sure a Woman might be in Labor for 20 hours. But the Birth of a Baby happens when the Baby is outside of the Womb and is Breathing Air. The actual Birth of the Baby, the Baby coming out of the womb is Not a long drawn out process. One second the Baby is in the Womb and in the next few seconds the Baby is delivered and is out of the womb and crying…

Salvation is as Certain as the Birth of a Baby. It is a Clear One time Event that cannot ever be undone.

Being Born Again is the New Birth.

John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

These verses talk about Being Born Again, the New Birth, being a New Man in Jesus Christ:

Ephesians 4:22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; 23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; 24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

Note: Please Read the Entire Chapter, Ephesians 4, it explains the New Birth, Christians having both their Saved New Man and their Old Man inside of them, in their body. The Internal Battle Against Sin. The Daily Struggle Against Living the Life they Lived Before they were Born Again.

Note: please understand my Blogs are Bible Studies. You will get the most out of them by opening your own KJV Bible to the passages I am using. I recommend to always read the entire Chapter when I quote Bible Verses. You will understand what I am saying much Better. I cannot post all the verses you should be reading in my Blogs.

When a Person is Saved they are Born Again.

They are a New Person.

This is a Spiritual Birth. Which means that the New Birth is a Spiritual operation. You are Still in your Old Body so even though you are Born Again you are Still Living in the same Old Body.

A Born Again Person is a New Person in their Old Body. They still have the same sinful body they had before they were Born Again.

The Difference is Now Being Born Again you have the Holy Spirit of God Living in You. You are Saved. Your Dead Spirit became alive at the New Birth, when you were Born Again.

Being Born Again Doesn’t make you a Sinless Person. It makes you a Forgiven Person who will Never Go to Hell.

People who are Born Again will have an Internal Battle against Sinning.

In Romans Chapter 7 Paul, likely the Greatest Christian man who has ever lived, is writing about his extreme internal Battle against Sinning. Paul is talking about his own struggles to keep himself from sinning.

Being a Christian is Not a Pious Life. It is a Life Filled with Battles. Filled with many Battles. The Battle against Sinning is a daily Fight for Everyone who is a Born Again Christian.

Romans 7:11 For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me. 12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good. 13 Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful. 14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. 15 For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. 16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good. 17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. 18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. 19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. 20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. 21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. 22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: 23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. 24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? 25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.

Beware of “Christians” that Lie and say that they do not Sin.

All Christians Sin daily. This is Not a Bragging Statement. It is a Fact. Good Christians Fight against Sin, they do not give into Sin and Let Sin Completely Control their Lives.

Some Christians Do Not Fight against Sin… They are Saved because they have been Born Again but you cannot tell any difference between them and a Lost person.

Jesus Speaking in John Chapter 3

John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

These Verses are talking about Being Born Again:

2nd Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. 21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

Being Born Again means you are a New Creature. You are to Be a New Person in Jesus Christ. Our Old Past Lives need to become a Distant Memory. Born Again comes with the responsibility to Be a Christian – Christlike. We are supposed to behave like Jesus did / does.

Honestly Most People Reject Jesus because they Don’t want to be a Christian. They Love Sin. They want to Sin. They Reject Jesus because they Do Not want to Give up Sin.

They Do Not Understand Salvation. A person Does Not Go to Heaven because they Give up their Sins. Repent of Sin, Forsaking, Giving up Sinning is Works Salvation and is Not in the Bible.

A person Goes to Heaven because they Believe that Jesus Died to Take away the Penalty for All of their Sins. They are Trusting in Jesus Only to Save them.

Being Born Again is About Having a New Life in Jesus Christ:

Colossians 3:1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. 3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory. 5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: 6 For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience: 7 In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them. 8 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. 9 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; 10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: 11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all. 12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; 13 Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. 14 And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. 15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful. 16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. 17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

Jesus shares the Gospel with Nicodemus:

John 3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: 15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

To Be Saved Eternally, You will Never Go to Hell, Ask Jesus to Save You. Believe the Gospel Only.

1st Corinthians 15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
