AND 1 JOHN 5::18. reads , WE KNOW. that. the whosoever is BORN of GOD does NOT //. OU. , is
And 1 John 5:18 says !!
How are you using “born again” that it refers only to the Jews? What do you call it in a gentile Christian when God calls, justifies, and sanctifies them? Does not the same process happen to them that happens to a Jew? Do Jews have a different salvific process to at gentiles don’t have?
Born again only appears in 2 places *********
Why do you suggest that those verses only speak of the Jews? Is there a separate gospel for the Jews than there is for the gentiles?
Its called dispensational
Not true in the least. Even prior to Christ’s birth, men were saved by looking forward to the sacrifice of Christ, just as we are saved now. What Jesus taught before He died is the same gospel Paul preached. It had to be couched in different words because He hadn’t died yet, but it is the same gospel.
If you say so, yet what you wrote here I didn't read in your other statements. Point blank as the post is labeled only Israel can be born again.
Paul spoke to Jews and gentiles
AND IN. John 3:7 Jesus says marvel not that. I. said unto thee YE. must be born AGAIN !!
And that doesn’t answer the question. The question was, IF Jesus was speaking ONLY to the Jews in that verse, then where is the gospel to the gentiles elucidated?
And in. Rom. 1:1 the HOLY SP[IRIOT HAD Paul write as SEPARATED //. APHORIZO. and that GREEK word means that
Hello Doug, Titus 3:5 has already been mentioned, but here's another verse and a passage which have not been (at least, I didn't notice them as I quickly skimmed through this thread anyway).
So, for the sake of argument, how do you distinguish between being born again, born of the Spirit, born of Him/Christ, and being born of God?? How could anyone be born of God without being born again//
Ad you quoted Gal 6:1 will you explain what GAL 6:15 means , just asking. ?/Hello Doug, Titus 3:5 has already been mentioned, but here's another verse and a passage which have not been (at least, I didn't notice them as I quickly skimmed through this thread anyway).
2 Corinthians 517 If ~anyone~ is in Christ, he is a ~new creation~; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. Ephesians 21 You were dead in your trespasses and sins, 2 in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience. 3 Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest. 4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, 5 even when we were dead in our transgressions, ~made us alive~ together with Christ (by grace you have been saved).
God bless you!!
--David
p.s. - here's another verse from the Apostle Paul, just for good measure
Galatians 615 Neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything. What counts is a ~new creation~.
And in. Rom. 1:1 Paul a slave of Christ Jesus , a called apostle having been SEPARATED //. APHORIZO. , means the Paul was
DougE, it appears you have abandoned your thread here, but I thought I’d let you know that the term “born again Christian” started in the 1920s. So, I’d suggest you start looking things up prior to posting them.
