John 3:7
Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
When Jesus told Nicodemus that except a man be born again he cannot see [perceive] the Kingdom of God as per vs 3
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
In essence, what Jesus meant, except ye are of that seed in Me, by being Chosen in Him before the foundation of the World [Eph 1:4] ye cannot see or understand the Kingdom of God, which is to include it's Gospel, The Gospel of the Kingdom or of the Kingdom of God. Matt 24:14
And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
Mark 1:14
Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
Which are also the Kingdom Mysteries Luke 8:10
And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.
Now, even though Jesus was giving a condition " except ye be born again ", yet He was not giving a imperative or duty for one to perform to become born again; because there is nothing a person can do to be born; even if it was for us to go back into our mothers womb, [ which its not] how could we accomplish that ? Could we make ourselves fetuses again ? Would that be in our ability ?
But nevertheless, Christ meant what He said in stating that 'Ye must be born Again " !
Jesus spoke of a waxed gross heart. He said those whose hearts were waxed gross were not given to know the mysteries of God's kingdom.
These were everyone who Jesus encountered except His disciples. (re. Matthews: 13 verses: 10 to 16)
What is a waxed gross heart and how is this related to being 'born again'?
This seems important because one must be given to know the mysteries of God's kingdom before one can actually know the mysteries of God's kingdom. And one need to know the mysteries of God's kingdom in order to be saved and delivered.
John 3:7

When Jesus told Nicodemus that except a man be born again he cannot see [perceive] the Kingdom of God as per vs 3

And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
The gospel of the kingdom of God is nothing in the O.T. and a very small amount of the things in the KJV N.T.
The gospel of the kingdom of God is seriously mistake to be the entire Bible. It is really only the gospel of un-circumcision which was committed only onto Paul.
When Jesus was physically on earth, it was given for only his disciples to know the mysteries of God's kingdom. If at all, at that time, these mysteries were delivered, they were delivered only to His disciples in very private session among only them and not delivered to anyone else (re. Matthews: 13 verses: 10 to 30)
It seem that (at the end of it all) only Paul received this gospel, directly from the Spirit of Jesus through his own heart or spirit and not in physically spoken or physically written words.
After Jesus physically left those precincts, Paul had communion with the regenerated the Spirit of Truth/Spirit of Jesus and this Spirit revealed the Gospel of un-circumcision to him through his own heart or spirit. This was the first revelation of the Gospel of un-circumcision to anyone in that area of earth and to anyone who has come up through the Moses-ian path way.
This gospel was committed onto only Paul. This is founded on righteousness of God without the law.
This is the gospel which must be published and made know in accuracy, totality and clarity in all land. This is the gospel of un-circumcision. It is not the entire Bible. It is the Bible freed of parables and free of guidance for the unaware and freed of Moses-ism whether original or revised. It is the purified Bible. The Gospel of God's kingdom of heaven is Truth and only Truth, in totality, accuracy and clarity.
I am called to this purpose, by God, in the body of Christ. Those who empower me will be among the chosen few.
Access to this gospel is gained only when one's hearts is not or no longer waxed gross (re. Matthews: 13 verses: 10 to 30).
Moving from having a heart that is waxed gross to having a heart that is not waxed gross is the act of becoming 'born again'. This is the act of awakening to (or becoming aware of) one's own heart or spirit. Then one can search one's heart or spirit to discern the Spirit of Jesus/Spirit of Truth which God sent into one's own heart or spirit (re. Galatians: 4 verses: 5 & 6), as Paul did. This Spirit passes all Truth, intuitively, privately and directly from within one's own heart or spirit and not through the physically spoken and physically written scriptures. The physically spoken and physically written scriptures does not deliver All Truth.
The gospel of the kingdom of God is nothing in the O.T. and a very small amount of the things in the KJV N.T.

Do you understand the essence of what I am saying in the quote ? Please explain what I am saying !
I perceived that post # 65 was spot on.
Jn 3:8
7Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
To be born again is not a command for people to go out and try to make themselves born again, by things they must do, for that is not what Jesus is Talking about. What Jesus is saying is that another you must be born again, a whole New Creation apart from Being born of the Flesh, or natural Childbirth. The you that we are by Nature, is not changed or altered, but an additional you, from another source must be born. You see, we must be born out of an incorruptible seed. The life we [The Elect] were given in Adam was out of an corruptible seed 1 Pet 1:23
23Being born again, not of corruptible seed[Adam], but of incorruptible[Christ], by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
However, in order to be born again there must be a Life that we already have in the Incorruptible Seed, which is The Word of God, or the Logos of God, who is Jesus Christ, the Seed Gal 3:16
16Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
We must have had a seed substance Life or existence in Christ, as we had in Adam, to be born again of the Spirit. So Jesus in His conversation with Nicodemus was informing him, unless a man has a seminal[Spiritual] existence in the incorruptible seed [Christ], they shall not see or enter the kingdom of God. Folks the Spiritual Birth that John writes of in Jn 3, is in no way related to the flesh, its origin is out of a whole different realm Jn 3:6a
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
And what is really insane today is the false teaching that a Spiritual New Birth is a product of the flesh, the natural mans faith or his freewill or his decision causes it, in total contradiction to Jn 1:12-13
12But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
13Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
They are teaching that the right to become a Child of God was by the will of the flesh, but that right was not because of the will of the flesh or of man, but it was out of the Will of God ! The fact of the matter is this, we had no choice or say so in being born physically out of adam, nor out of Christ, if we belong to Christ !
Your conclusions seem confused.
If I simply take your first quote: Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
Your opening point seem to be that this not a commandment from Jesus.
It is at least a declaration of fact.

You have failed to prove that you understand what I am saying within my posts, you give no analysis of the components the posts, you are too much in a hurry to give your opinion on things. Until you do that, I have nothing else for you, since you do not seem to grasp what's being said as to why one is Born Again ! I spent a lot of time showing that !
Why go though all of that?
Why go though all of that?
Why not simply say in simple words why one is 'born again'?
Then you can provide the KJV N.T. support if necessary.
Letters discernment kills my intuitive discernment.

I beg your pardon, I went through all of that to put there to make a point !
John 3:7
Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
When Jesus told Nicodemus that except a man be born again he cannot see [perceive] the Kingdom of God as per vs 3

In essence, what Jesus meant, except ye are of that seed in Me, by being Chosen in Him before the foundation of the World [Eph 1:4] ye cannot see or understand the Kingdom of God, which is to include it's Gospel, The Gospel of the Kingdom or of the Kingdom of God. Matt 24:14

Could we make ourselves fetuses again ? Would that be in our ability ?
But nevertheless, Christ meant what He said in stating that 'Ye must be born Again " !
In order for someone to become "born again" they must place all their faith in Christ as Lord and Savior,
O.K.
State your point clearly then provide the proof.

If you wanna comment on what I am saying, please reveiw posts 54,55, and 60 and then explain what my point is that you perceive, regardless if you agree with it. But you should be able to follow my reasoning !
