Bible Note: Joe since you asked "new birth (does one become "un-born again"?)" Let me respond and answer with a quote I found concerning that question. "I have listened many times to an explanation of eternal security based upon the analogy of sonship. "My child is born into my family and he will always be my child. He cannot be unborn. Whether obedient or disobedient, he will always be my child." This reasoning avoids the central issue. The question is not whether a child can be "unborn" but whether it can sicken and die. Doctors do not admonish parents about the dangers of their child being "unborn" but rather about proper care of the child to keep it from dying.In fact if the baby is not fed it will soon die. In the same way, Jesus said, "Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink His blood, ye have no life in you." John 6:53 (from a source unknown to me) Beacause of what many verses of the Bible state, I have no choice but to believe that a person who HAS BEEN MADE ALIVE SPIRITUALLY, can also die spiritually. Spiritual death, is just as real as physical death. God Bless New Creature |
