Re: The born again experience
Ye must be born again. Explained by Jesus as you must be born of water and the Spirit.
It takes water baptism and Spirit baptism, BOTH, to fulfill the words of Christ as to being born again.
One without the other is not Biblical new birth. Salvation began before the foundation of the world, was actualised on Calvary, brings us through the preached word to repentance and faith, leads us to the watery grave of baptism, fills us with the Spirit of Jesus, conforms us to His likeness, keeps us to the end, will raise us from the dead, and keep us living forever with Christ.
