Well how will the made up born again theology, which Christ never taught, claim they ‘believed’ in Him?

Another incomprehensible post, but I will try and respond with a simple quote, to what I think you said, with Jesus telling us:

John 3: 3 Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.”

4 “How can someone be born when they are old?” Nicodemus asked. “Surely they cannot enter a second time into their mother’s womb to be born!”

5 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. 6 Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. 7 You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’ 8 The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”

*** and Paul telling us how!

Romans 10: 9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. 11 As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.” 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

You are not a winner this time. You may try again later...

John 3:13 And NO man hath ascended up to heaven, but He That came down from heaven, even the Son of man Which is in heaven.

This is the summation of the lesson. I will follow the WORD of Christ not that of the confused Nicodemus, which is what this born again theology is.

Winners will not be declared until Judgment Day, and you have no say about anyone else but yourself on that Day.
