Born again?

Sure, you know.

John 3:7
Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

Why are you posting to a question not addressed to you, but not answering my post which was addressed to you?


1 Jn. 1:7
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

Do you walk in the Light, or do you walk in Darkness?

John wrote this Epistle and Chapter 1 John 1 right?
John also wrote this Epistle and Chapter 1 John 3 right?

John wrote the Chapter 1 before he wrote Chapter 3 Right?

If this is true, how then does what John wrote in Chapter 1 Contradict, Refute what he then wrote in Chapter 3, when they were both written by John?

Don't you see John is progressing in his thought, Teaching, and when he gets to Chapter 3 what he writes in that Chapter is as True as what he wrote in Chapter 1, they do not Contradict, or Refute each other, it is the progressive understanding of his thought and Teaching, they aren't separate Teachings on two different subjects, but a Progressive Teaching on the same subject.

John in Chapter 1 began by showing how a person has a Sinful Nature and that all sin, further on in his Epistle, Chapter 3 John shows how we as Believers are now Free From Sin through Christ, and he explains why.

John in Chapter 3 says very clearly where the Christian is, in Relation to God.

1 Jn. 3:6
Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not:

1 Jn. 3:9
Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

But you are saying you sin and repent, sin and repent over and over again, if what you say about yourself is true, then this is what John says in the same Chapter about you in relation to God.

1 Jn. 3:6
whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.

1 Jn. 3:8
He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning.

1Jn 3:10
In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.

This is what Paul says about a Christian that sins, and take note he begins by saying (For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened) therefore we know Paul is speaking about Christians, there isn't any doubt.

Heb 6:4-6
4) For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
5) And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
6) If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.

Making it simple, Paul said "It is impossible for a Christian that sins, to Repent"

How then can you say you Sin and Repent over and over again, when it is Impossible for you to do so?

He that declares himself to be a sinner, is therefore a sinner.
He that declares himself to be Dead to Sin, is therefore Freed From Sin.

You don't understand, you don't want to understand, you just want to continue in ignorance, so be it.

When you know where you stand as a Christian, then there can be a discussion.

1 Peter 3:18
For Christ also died FOR sins once FOR all, the just FOR the unjust, so that He might bring us to God, having been put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit;

2 Corinthians 5:21
He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.


1 JOHN 1 (NASB)…TO BELIEVERS! …God Is Light (NOTE: Dark is absence of Light)

5 This is the message “we” have heard from Him (Jesus) and announce to you,

that God is Light,

and in Him there is no darkness at all.

6 If we say that we have FELLOWSHIP with Him and yet walk in the darkness,

we lie and do not PRACTICE the “truth”;

7 BUT if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light,

we have FELLOWSHIP with “one another”,

and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.

8 If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us.

9 If we CONFESS (AGREE WITH GOD ABOUT) our sins, He is faithful and righteous to FORGIVE us our sins and to CLEANSE us from all unrighteousness.

10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar and His word is not in us.

Forgiveness of Sins is a spiritual gift and a benefit of salvation.

Matthew 26:28
for this is My blood of the (NEW) covenant, which is poured out for many FOR forgiveness of sins.

Luke 1:77
To give to His people the knowledge of salvation (and) By the forgiveness of their sins,

Acts 10:43
Of Him all the prophets bear witness that through His name everyone who believes in Him
receives forgiveness of sins.”

Colossians 1:14
in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
