[Just mythoughts]

I believe we had this discussion on another thread, Thoughts, and Jesus did say “born again” in Aramaic. And since born again and born from above both mean being filled with the Holy Spirit, either term works. Born again...spiritual rebirth, not physical Born from above...spiritual rebirth, not physical

I think Bart made up that claim about a language barrier. The big problem is the instruction Jesus gave Nicodemus was not new and had nothing to do with some spirit filled thrill. Jesus was telling any who can and will read that only those that take this flesh journey can see and possibly enter into the kingdom of God. Nothing there about a 'spirit' filled emotion.

[jodyel]

No emotion to it.

The spirit of God lives inside each believer, and when He enters the change is palpable. One knows when they have received the Spirit and it has nothing to do with emotion. One is changed dramatically and one knows it immediately.

That is the best way I can describe it.
