Just kidding, just kidding........
No, you haven’t.
You think that my comments are “ranting”?
Are you sure you’re replying to the right person?
Odd.
With enough repeats, an objection turns into a rant.
you wrote:
“I ask you, then: Are you born again?
Yes, I am.
“Those who have a low view of the Word of God will distance themselves from the born again question, though it is a biblical concept.”
Some might I suppose, but I think others have a high regard for scripture, but don’t see things as you do.
I urge you in the Name of Christ to consider the basis of your claim about being born again due to infant baptism. I was baptized as an infant in the RCC. My parents were very devout and faithful Catholics, but I was NOT saved due to that ceremony.
I got save by reading the Word of God (the Douay-Rheims actually). In the second chapter of Ephesians, God wrestled with my heart, pinned me, convinced me the I was wrong and that He is correct, true and trustworthy in His Word.
THAT is when he caused me to be born again, and when my heart was circumcised. Not before.
This is my story.
This is my song.
1 Peter 1:23 "Being born again not of corruptible seed, but incorruptible, by the word of God who liveth and remaineth for ever."
Douay-Rheims 1899
