"Anyone who believes in the Jesus of the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John is “born again”.
Period"

Thank you.

Born Again - a method for churches, ministers, etc. to make more money.

A friend took me to one of those born again services.
People looked at me like I was strange. They had big wide eyes and these goofy smiles as if to say isn't it wonderful. I couldn't get out of there fast enough.

The concept of "born again" is not a man-made creation. Jesus is credited with those words in the bible.

Therefore, it is valid, and it should be respected by true followers of Jesus. That doesn't mean it isn't abused by some, but we don't jettison truth just because someone distorts it.

It is not about denomination. It's about Jesus' words.

Since Jesus said, "You must be born again.", then we must take it seriously.
