So I'm kind of scared about reincarnation . I'm a Christian but I wonder after we die do we have a choice of living again?
Like born again or staying in heaven . I'm worried that after I die and say I was to be born again I won't be with the one I love now or won't remember him or my son .. it's scary even though I won't remember but I don't want to be born again and not be the same people and not be with the same person I want to stay in heaven and stay around the people I know and love

God’s answers can be easily identified when we allow the Bible to interpret itself.
For example, at Genesis 3:19, we find God’s words to Adam after Adam and Eve disobeyed him.
God said: “In the sweat of your face you will eat bread until you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken. For dust you are and to dust you will return.” Adam was created from the dust.
At death, he returned to the dust. That was God’s clear statement on the matter. So at death a person is not reborn as someone else but ceases to exist.
Just as heat and cold, dry and wet, light and dark are opposites, death is the opposite of life.
The dead are really dead! Isn’t that simple and logical?
Reincarnation is the belief that after a person dies, he is reborn in one or more successive existences.
This is said to be on either a higher plane or a lower plane of existence compared to one’s previous life, depending on what record was supposedly built up during that previous lifetime.
According to this belief, one may be “reborn” either as a human or as an animal. That is quite in conflict with what the Bible teaches.

there is no reincarnation. our soul lives on after we die.how can you claim to be a christian and not know were not physically born again to live on the earth?
our soul goes back to god to await the resurrection of the physical body to live with christ for eternity. our soul rermembers every thing w did on earth.

According to 1 Corinthians 2:9, you will not be disappointed: “But as it is written: Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those that love him.”

No reincarnation . There aren't enough living people to accommodate all of the billions of dead . It is dead people trying to take advantage of traumatized kids so they can possess them .

Reincarnation is very natural, already in this life we , the soul or spirit, moves from one body to another, from youth to old age, the body changes, you the person remains the same, a son of God. It is said in the veda's, world oldest scripture that reincarnation is a fact for all those who don't make it to heaven. And it is said also that whatever state of being on remembers when he quits his body , that state will decide what body you'll have next, so don't live as a pig or dog, otherwise you'll get such a body, but live as an angel or son of God and you'll go back to God

No, it says that it is appointed unto a man to die once. The only way you're coming back, unless we're talking about the resurrection, is by God coming and reviving you from the dead on purpose, like when Jesus brought back Lazarus. There is no reincarnation. The closest thing that comes to that is Elijah, but even that event confuses me and it was part of prophecy and nothing more. It's not something everyone gets to do.

TRUE CHRISTIANS KNOW THERE is no reincarnation...GOD WILL JUDGE ALL HUMANS...THOSE WHO ARE SAVED WILL LIVE AGAIN...UNSAVED WILL NOT. IF 2 PEOPLE ARE RAISED IN A SIMILAR WAY IT CAN STILL WORK...HUBBY WAS RAISED BAPTIST AND I WAS RAISED METHODIST...HE IS NOT BORN AGAIN BUT WE GET ALONG WELL...IN FACT HIS DAD WAS A MINISTER.

Are you actually Christian? Christians don't believe in reincarnation.
God says that souls will have eternal life in heaven or hell. He never talked about reincarnation
Don't worry or believe in reincarnation, or you will be in trouble in spirit.

If you were a Christian then you'd know there's no scriptural basis for reincarnation
