    Amen! Being born again in the Spirit of God through our faith in Jesus Christ! We are washed clean from sin, given a new life in Christ. The old man is put away, and the new man is alive. Romans 10:17 says that "faith comes from hearing and by hearing the word of God." John 3:3 says "Unless you are born again you cannot see the kingdom of God"

    And this is what it means to be born again--- through salvation in Jesus Christ, being made new in His Spirit, given eternal life and cleansed from all unrighteousness. Amen!

    There is no thunder and lightning experience, but a turning around and a growing experience, like a new born baby.

    This verse means being truly born again by the water and the Spirit (John 3:5), and been made into a sinless and righteous child of God. If your gospel does not do this for you immediately then it is a false one.

    Just as an earthly woman, pregnant, we are being formed . During that process, will there be a mis-carriage ?

    Not if we hold fast our Faith until the end, and OBEY the Word which is forming us...

    Oh that the sons of God would be manifest ! Travail saints ! As a woman is in travail to deliver !!!

    Yes Being,born again is asking God for forgiveness, and being sorry for our sins. this makes this scripture so beautiful to the new Christian.

    Being born again means beginning a "new" life, one serving God instead of ourselves.
