To be born again. This concept originated from the Words of Jesus Christ to Nicodemus, a Pharisee and a master of Israel who, according to Biblical record, came to the Him in the night to ask serious questions.
The Lord reportedly told him that no one could enter the Kingdom of His Father except he is born again spiritually.
This presupposes taking on a new life, following a new recognition, that is entirely different from the usually narrow and erroneous position hitherto held, or one’s former way of life.
It implies a total change from the old, to a completely new way of life, based on conviction in the Truth contained in the new Teaching, Message or the Word of Truth brought by the Son of God Jesus.
It means dropping or pulling oneself off the old cloak, that one had hitherto been wearing, and donning the new garment Given by Jesus in His Teaching, Message or Word of Truth.
This literally translates to being dead to the old conviction or way of life, and being born anew into the new life, the new conviction offered in, and by Jesus, Who is the Incarnate Word of God.
Thus, such individual upon coming into contact with the Pure, Unblemished Teaching or Message or Word of Jesus, all of Which mean the same thing and express the Truth, and resolving to adhere with This based on conviction, is born into a new life, propelled on only and exclusively by the Truth contained in the new Teaching, Message or the Word.
He or she thereby becomes new! For such an individual, the old in him or her is dead in the spiritual sense.
Such a person is ready, and honestly seriously strives, to live and work strictly in accordance with the Dictates of the Natural Laws of Creation, which express the Supreme Holy Will, as a condition to enter the Kingdom of the Father.
Spiritually, he or she becomes henceforth a new man or woman with new conviction in the unblemished, undiluted Teaching, Message or Word of Truth as the foundation of his or her new way of life. And This Teaching, Message or simply the Word, expresses the Supreme Holy Will of God.
It is only by living strictly in accordance with This Teaching, Message or Word of Truth in Its Pure sense and meaning, without any distortion, Which Jesus Promised we would be reminded Of by the Promised Comforter the Holy Spirit, Who according to Him, will also lead us to all Truth, when He Comes to Judge mankind and the world, that a man or woman can be guaranteed freedom, liberation or salvation from the Darkness, and ascent to the Realm of Light, and thus the Sublime Kingdom of His Father.
It is in this sense that the Son of God Jesus Declared that except a man is born again, he cannot enter the Kingdom of His Father.
