NASB | John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God." |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | John 3:3 Jesus answered him, "I assure you and most solemnly say to you, unless a person is born again [reborn from above--spiritually transformed, renewed, sanctified], he cannot [ever] see and experience the kingdom of God." |
Bible Question: Every so often one hears the term "born-again Christian" even on news broadcasts. Isn't "born-again Christian" a redundancy? Aren't all Christians, by definition, born again? |
Bible Answer: Yes, all true Christians must be born again (John 3:3). I think the problem is the worlds view of what a Christian is. The world confuses religion with Christianity. The world has the idea that if someone goes to a Christian church, that makes them a Christian. |
