Many people, because they do not understand the meaning of the term, “BORN AGAIN,” pass the matter out of their minds without giving it the serious consideration it deserves. The new birth is vital link which cannot be neglected without a break in the chain that connects us with Christ and eternal life.
We are not presenting her some fad or fable, or the views of some religious sect, but declaring unto you the eternal Word of God.
When Jesus Christ said in the third chapter of John, “Ye must be born again,” He meant you to understand that regeneration is a “MUST,” and not optional. Therefore action is demanded. You will take action by accepting, rejecting or neglecting the new birth and thereby determine your eternal destiny. Many, taking Christ at His Word, diligently sought until they found the new birth. With it came the peace and joy that goes with the assurance of sins forgiven: but comparatively few have investigated the fundamental reason WHY a new birth is a necessity.
Did you ever read the story of creation in the first chapter of Genesis? There you will find an account of how God crated man in His own image: perfect. Then in the second chapter God laid down certain conditions and warned Adam that in the day he broke them he would surely die. Adam disbelieved God, broke them, and death took hold of the human race. This is known as “the fall of man.” Adam died not hundreds of years later, not only on the day, but the very moment he disobeyed God, not physically, as the natural man reasons, but SPIRITUALLY.
Before the fall, Adam possessed eternal life the same as we receive when we are born again. After the fall, Adam was just like every person born into the world from his time on, alive physically but dead spiritually, requiring the regenerating power of the new birth to give eternal life. “For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ s hall all be made alive.” (1 Corinthians 15:22).
Christ never made any unfounded demands. He loves those who just simply take Him at His word and seek the new birth by which He restores our lost heritage. He also rewards those with inquiring minds who wish to know the Lord’s reason for making these demands because after proving Him by the Scriptures they will have a deeper appreciation of His concern for their welfare.
Possibly some true Christian friend has told you that you need the new birth, and has explained Christ’s saying: “That which is born of the flesh is flesh: and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit,” and pointed out that down through the ages millions have been lead to believe in water baptism, church membership, a good moral life, and good works as the necessary requirements to fit them for heaven, but have neglected Christ’s warning: “Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God” (John 3:3). They failed to search the Scriptures diligently and prayerfully to know God’s will in the matter, and thus having lived their lives in this deceived state until death ushered them into the presence of God, still unregenerated, their eternal destinies now fixed without the possibility of a change., having received the dreadful sentence, “Depart from me…”
The way of salvation is plain and simple. When Christ purchased it for you on the cross of Calvary, He said, “IT IS FINISHED.” The only condition required of you is to repent. (Turn from your sins), believe on Christ, accept and confess Him as your personal Savior. “But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name” (John 1:12).
“Whosoever confesseth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God.” (1 John 5:1). “Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God. And we have known and believe the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God and God in Him.” (1 John 4:15,16).
“In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him.”
“Herein is live, not that we first loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation (sacrifice) for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. No man has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and His love is perfected in us. Hereby know we that we dwell in Him, and He in us, because He hath given us of His Spirit.” (1 John 9:14)
Friend: In this short space we have endeavored to give you scriptural reasons why Christ made such demands. Through the reading of these truths you have received light and we would remind you that resisted light becomes darkness. Read your bible and prove whether these things be true.
“How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation?” (Hebrews 2:3).
HAVE YOU BEEN BORN AGAIN? IF NOT WHY NOT? Pray now & ask Jesus to save you. God bless you.
