So glad you find them “refreshing.” Not “born again” refreshing, of course, but hopefully in that same spirit.

What a funny statement!

IMO, "born again" is something you bring to a discussion with which to interpret the contents thereof. "Born again" is the Holy Spirit alive and at work within the follower of Christ.

Jesus referred to the Holy Spirit as being like the wind. You don't see the wind, but you can see the things it carries, moves, or caresses.

"The wind blows where it wishes and you hear the sound of it, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going; so is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”
John 3:8

"Can you see God? You haven't seen him? I've never seen the wind. I see the effects of the wind, but I've never seen the wind. There's a mystery to it."
Rev. Billy Graham
