No one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again (John 3:3) No one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit (John 3:5). As people in 2000 years ago including Jesus had ideas mainly that the Heaven is somewhere in the air, they believed in that the Spirit come down from the Heaven which is somewhere in the air. Based on such viewpoint toward the Heaven and the Spirit, Jesus told John the Baptist : "The man on whom you see the Spirit come down and remain is he who will baptize with the Holy Spirit." (John 1:33)
To tell the Truth, all words in Bible are spiritual words. And spirit is human mind. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God.
On that account, the word 'born of the Spirit' means reborn through the Spirit of God. Namely, it is to say, because you are under control of Satan at the moment, the Satan must be killed, then born again of the Spirit of God to be saved. Therefore, The word "through reborn of the Spirit to be saved" means one must be filled 100% with the Spirit of God who defeats Satan. And this is also the same meaning with "through faith with the Holy Spirit to be saved". Therefore, though its expressions are different, they say exactly the same thing.
It is not true that I , a sinner, will be saved. |
