Preface: These two messages....A Supernatural Birth....and....A Necessary Birth....can easily be listened to by going to renewingyourmind.org....clicking on archives.....and they are right there! Steven J. Lawson is the speaker.
I took a break in the middle of cutting grass while listening to R. C. Sproul's radio program Renewing Your Mind to put this temporary post up. It concerns the topic of being born again. I mention being born again in these posts a lot...at times trying to get it in conversations with friends....who are indeed 'conservative evangelicals'....moral and pious and patriotic and church going....but maybe that is all....in the hope that they would seriously consider the necessity of having to be born again. It's a phrase that forty and fifty years ago entered the mainstream of the American consciousness....but unfortunately....thanks in good part to the failure of our pulpits....it has remained a nebulous phrase....more of an irritation to many....even Christians....than anything else. So if you wish....just google renewingyourmind.org and click on archives. They are two short little teachings.....so much more is needed....but to some it might be enough to get them researching this Christian doctrine....without which....one cannot see the kingdom of God.
Note: One might indeed be born again and not be able to put a definition to it. This isn't an essay test question....but if you do not know what God's Word means when it uses this term.....then you must find out....if for no other reason than to tell others of this greatest of all miracles.
Note: You can also just Google these titles.
