BORN AGAIN; WHAT DOES IT MEAN?


In 1977 Jimmy Carter ran for President as a "born again" Christian. It probably got him elected, but some journalists were puzzled by the meaning of "born again".
Salvation is not a decision in the head; it's a spiritual birth into the Family of God.
John 1:11-13 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to these that believe on his name. Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
If Salvation is based on our good works, we would constantly boast.
Ephesians 2:8,9 For by grace are ye saved through faith, and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God; Not of works, lest any man should boast.
If you have never trusted Christ as your personal Saviour, surrender your heart to Him. Ask Him to save you. You can be "born again". Talk to God. Your eternity is at stake. He's waiting.
