Breaking All Chains
Setting The Captives Free
Are You Born Again ? By Peter James
Recently I asked the question are you a born again
Christian?
As I expected most said that they were, with some
making use of the
alternative words in the margin of the A.V., ‘born
from above’.
Several documents on the website express the same
sentiments
that I received.
This was not a trick question to pit one intellect
against another.
It was rather that this point, and the ramifications
had been made clear
to me. I also wanted to see what others thought.
One problem for us all is that we are being led into
all truth.
It is my experience and certainly one of the
difficulties faced in what I do.
John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is
come,
he will guide you into all truth:
for he shall not speak of himself;
but
whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak:
and he will shew you things to come.
As I say salvation is a process.
Let us look first of what happens
at baptism.
Ezekiel 36:22 tells us that the whole nation of Israel is being
addressed.
Ezekiel 36:22 Therefore
say unto the house of Israel,
Thus
saith the Lord GOD; I
do not this for your sakes,
O house of Israel, but for mine holy name’s
sake, which ye have profaned
among the heathen, whither ye went.
Verse 25 tells us that we are unclean and we will be
cleansed by having
water sprinkled on us.
This is not telling us that baptism is by
sprinkling.
The New Testament makes it clear that baptism
is by immersion.
Ezekiel 36:25 ¶ Then will
I sprinkle clean water upon you,
and ye shall be clean:
from all your filthiness, and
from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
When we are cleansed, that is have repented and
accepted Jesus Christ
as our personal Saviour, we are told in verse 26
1) that we will be given a heart of flesh to replace our rock
hard hearts.
2) our fallen human spirit will be replaced by a new spirit.
3) the result of this is that we will be able to
receive the Holy Spirit
in this new
spirit.
Ezekiel 36:26 A new heart
also will I give you, and a new spirit will
I put within you: and I will take
away the stony heart out of your flesh,
and I will give you an heart of
flesh.
4) we will then be given the Holy Sprit to actually dwell
within us.
5) we will then, and only then be able to keep,
observe and do all the Laws and commandments of the Eternal God.
Ezekiel 36:27 And
I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk
in my statutes, and ye shall keep
my judgments, and do them.
6) we will then be the people of God.
Ezekiel 36:28 And
ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers;
and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.
7) we will saved from all our uncleaness.
Ezekiel 36:29 I will also save you from all
your uncleannesses:
and I will call for the corn, and
will increase it, and lay no famine upon you.
All of this activity takes place in the present human body
of a genuine
believer. It is not an instant change from ignorance to all
knowledge
in the blink of an eye.
We were clearly told several years ago that we could not
cope with having
all Truth dumped on us at once.
It would be too much for us.
This is an absolute fact.
Understanding the true horror of the world in which we live
can only take
place with the strengthening of the Holy Spirit.
Isaiah 28:10 For precept must be upon
precept, precept upon precept;
line
upon line, line upon line; here a
little, and there a little:
We still have the very same physical body, with all its
shortcomings
that we have always had.
It is the very same you, that you see when you look in the
mirror, however,
your thoughts and
deeds are undergoing major changes. The reason for
the change is that we have been given the earnest of the
Spirit.
2 Corinthians 1:21 Now he which
stablisheth us with you in Christ,
and hath anointed us, is
God;
2 Corinthians 1:22 Who hath
also sealed us, and given
the earnest
of the Spirit in our
hearts.
Our rebellious sinful nature is being changed little by
little.
Though you look the same, onlookers will notice that there
is something
very different about you.
Let us consider the scripture which is used to
say that we are born again.
John 3:2 The same
came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi,
we know that thou art a teacher
come from God: for no man can do these
miracles that thou doest, except
God be with him.
Jesus told Nicodemus that He had to be born
from above (born again),
in order to see the kingdom of God. We tend to
ignore the last part of the
verse, which states,
that in order to see the kingdom of God, the
prerequisite is that one had
to be born again.
I do not know anyone, including myself, who has
seen the kingdom
of God. Maybe someone has, but certainly I have
not.
Of course I experience the peace of God, but
that is not seeing the
kingdom of God.
John 3:3 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.
This set a monumental problem for Nicodemus.
I am unable to find the document where I explained
that there were seven
ways in which a Jew considered themselves to be
born again.
If I remember correctly one was at
circumcision, at Bar-Mitzvah, at
marriage, becoming a Rabbi etc.
Nicodemus had used up all his allotment to be
‘born again’.
Therefore the only thing that he could think of
was, well I have to be able
to restart the process, by being physically
born again, but then he knew the
absurdity of what he was saying.
John 3:4 Nicodemus
saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is
old? can he enter the second time
into his mother’s womb, and be born?
Then the situation becomes even more difficult
for Nicodemus, who was a
Pharisee, and would have been a meticulous law
keeper.
He was told that the kingdom of God was
something that we had to
enter into, but entering it had two
requirements.
1) one had to be born of water.
2) one had to be born of the spirit.
This was not referring to the normal birth of a
human being in the ‘waters’
of the mother.
This occurs to all human beings.
This has to be referring to water baptism.
However was he going to do that, when he
already thought that he was
doing all that he could do.
John 3:5 Jesus
answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be
born of water and of the
Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
Christ then clearly defined the difference
between the flesh and the spirit.
He stated that flesh is flesh and it will
always be flesh.
He
stated that spirit is spirit and it will always be spirit.
John 3:6 That
which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of
the Spirit is spirit.
Nicodemus was incredulous at what he had been
told, therefore Christ
said do not marvel at what I have said, that is
how it is.
John 3:7 Marvel not
that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
Christ then explains the what a spirit born
person can do.
John 3:8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou
hearest the sound
thereof, but canst not
tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth:
so is
every one that is born
of the Spirit.
John 3:9 Nicodemus
answered and said unto him, How can these things
be?
John 3:10 Jesus
answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel,
and knowest not these things?
This is a
monumental problem for those who claim to be born again.
Not a
single person can operate like the wind, moving unseen from place
to place, but that is precisely what
Christ said that anyone who is born of
the
spirit would be able to do.
There is a second and even greater problem.
Anyone who is born from above (born again),
born of the Spirit,
CANNOT SIN.
1 John 5:18 ¶ We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not;
but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked
one toucheth him not.
Have you noticed that there are certain
Christians, many of the
Pentecostal persuasion, with whom you are quite
unable to have any
meaningful conversation about the Truth?
One reason can be that they feel that as they
are born again, and the
scripture says that whosoever is born of God
sinneth not, they are not
sinning.
Indeed they cannot sin as the scripture says
so.
In fact the reality is that they are blinded in
their outright rebellion against
the laws of the Most High God.
They claim that we are in ignorance, because
the law is ‘done away with’,
and now that they are born again, they are
without sin.
Unless the Eternal God opens their minds to
their gross error, and removes
their blindness you will never break through to
these unfortunate people.
Yes something happens to a genuine believer who is
converted, baptised
and receives the Holy Spirit, but he certainly is not being
born again.
The first place that we see the process of being born again
is the birth of
the Manchild, in Revelation
chapter 12.
We see the woman, that is the church, is carrying the
Manchild, and at
these end times, she is in great pain waiting to give birth
to her child.
Revelation 12:1 ¶ And there
appeared a great wonder in heaven;
a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet,
and upon her
head a crown of twelve stars:
Revelation 12:2 And she being with child cried, travailing in
birth, and
pained to be delivered.
We then see that the woman gives birth to the
child which she had been
carrying.
These genuine believers, the stronger part of
the woman, had already
been born of water, now they were being born of
the Spirit.
Revelation 12:5 And
she brought forth a
man child, who was to rule all
nations with a rod of iron: . . .
This new born
manchild immediately acts in a very different manner,
to any one who is
just born of water.
The man child is
caught up to the throne of God.
Revelation 12:5 .
. . . . .
and her child was caught up unto God,
and to his throne.
These are not a set of human beings.
These new creatures are now doing something that no human
being can
do. They are now literally in the presence of God and His
throne.
Christ said no man had ascended up to heaven.
John 3:13 And no man
hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man
which is in heaven.
Not even David a man after God’s own heart had
ascended into heaven.
If he did not manage to do that we can be sure
that we would also be
unable to do that.
Acts 2:34 For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith
himself,
The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
Additionally no man has seen God at any time.
John 1:18 No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son,
which is in the bosom of the
Father, he hath declared him.
In spite of these verses the Manchild is caught up to the
throne.
The reason for this is because those comprising the
Manchild had been born from above,
(born again).
This process took
place in the twinkling of an eye.
All genuine believers can truly claim to be justified and
sanctified.
1 Corinthians 6:11 And such
were some of you: but ye are washed,
but
ye are sanctified,
but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of
our God.
Our sins have been forgiven and we have been set apart for
holy use, that is sanctified.
This is what we should be doing to make our calling and
election sure.
2 Peter 1:2 Grace and
peace be multiplied unto you through the
knowledge of God, and of Jesus
our Lord,
2 Peter 1:3 According as
his divine power hath given unto us all things
that pertain unto life and
godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath
called us to glory and virtue:
2 Peter 1:4 Whereby are
given unto us exceeding great and precious
promises: that by these ye might
be partakers of the divine nature,
having escaped the corruption
that is in the world through lust.
2 Peter 1:5 ¶ And beside
this, giving all diligence,
add to your faith virtue;
and to virtue
knowledge;
2 Peter 1:6 And to knowledge temperance; and to
temperance patience;
and to patience
godliness;
2 Peter 1:7 And to godliness brotherly kindness;
and to brotherly kindness
charity.
2 Peter 1:8 For if these
things be in you, and abound, they make you that
ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the
knowledge of our
Lord Jesus Christ.
2 Peter 1:9 But he that
lacketh these things is blind,
and cannot see afar off,
and hath forgotten that he was
purged from his old sins.
2 Peter 1:10 Wherefore the
rather, brethren, give diligence to make
your
calling and election
sure: for if ye do these things, ye
shall never fall:
2 Peter 1:11 For so an
entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly
into the everlasting kingdom of
our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
As you have seen, genuine believers are justified and
sanctified, now,
but being born again is a glorious future that still
awaits.
What are you going to do about it before it is too
late?

This is very easy to say, but I
assure you that it is physically impossible,
without the empowerment of the Eternal God.
Just
going up to some altar call, running to some church, or isolating
yourself in the hope that somehow it will all
go away, will not do it.
