You have no scriptural proof of that. There is in fact scriptural proof that your statement is in error. The kingdom of God is already in our midst per Jesus own words.
Luke 17:20 Now having been questioned by the Pharisees as to when the kingdom of God was coming, He answered them and said, "The kingdom of God is not coming with signs to be observed; 21nor will they say, 'Look, here it is!' or, 'There it is!' For behold, the kingdom of God is in your midst."
>>They were two separate, and very different words.<<
Nonsense. Both words say virtually the same thing. The word in John 3:3 means to be born (a) from above, from heaven, (b) from the beginning, from their origin (source), from of old, (c) again, anew. The word in 1 Peter 1:23 means I beget again, beget into a new life. No where can your comment be supported by scripture.

Only to those that are spiritually a part of his kingdom.
Our physical bodies cannot live in the Kingdom. As Paul explained, we must be changed, in a twinkling of an eye, at the last trump, our corrupt bodies must become incorruptible bodies. That is the “born again” to which Yeshua referred in his conversation with Nicodemus, a high priest, who was well aware of what the scriptures said on the matter. It was a technical message, as opposed to the spirititual message that Peter was delivering.
To one that reads his Bible for understanding, there is massive scriptural proof, but to those that do not understand what they are reading, no proof is possible.

What is nonsense is MM, WVK, and you, all arguing with two people that have studies Greek at the graduate level. One a Protestant and the other a Catholic telling you that you all are wrong.
Wake up and smell the coffee, "Bob's house O' god" lied to you.
