THE NEW BIRTH IS REQUIRED

THE NEW BIRTH IS REQUIRED

“Except a man be born again, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God” (John 3:3)

“It’s essential that we must be baptized. Jesus give this statement in St. Matthew, or St. Mark 16; He said, “Go into all the world and preach the Gospel; he that believeth and is baptized shall be saved.” And when He was talking to Nicodemus, He said, “Except a man be born of water and Spirit he will in nowise enter the Kingdom.” It must be baptized. I believe in immersing, in the baptism, in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and to be raised again in newness of life, to walk after the commandments of God.”
“Now, when you come to the age of accountability, and you know what’s wrong and right, you’re supposed to turn from your wrong. Because you’re born in sin, shaped in iniquity, come to the world speaking lies, that you’re—you’re actually born as a sexual desire, and then you must be born again in order to receive a new birth to enter into Heaven.”
“Yes, to be born again you must go through a process of death; everything does. You take a grain of corn; if that corn ever expects to live again, it’s got to die first. If a grain of wheat ever expects to live again, it’s totally impossible for... That corn, that wheat, that flower, that tree, that grass, that vegetable, everything that expects to live again must die first. Then how you going to escape it? You got to die first. You got to die. Die how? To yourself, die to everything, so that you can be born again. You’ve got to do that. If you don’t die, you can never live again… First, to die, in order to be born again... And if you still got the things of the world in you, you’re not born again. And how you going to claim to be born again and still with the things of the world hanging on you? See? How can you do it?”

“Notice: you must be borned again. And when you’re born again, you can’t be born again without having faith. That’s right. So, you see on my chart here, I got the very foundation. Faith is the foundation of all of it. For without faith it’s impossible to please God: “He that cometh to God must believe that He is, and a Rewarder of those that diligently seek Him.” See? He must be. And when you are a skeptic of the Bible, when you’re skeptic of the Word being right, you just might as well stay back until first you believe it.
What is sin? Unbelief. There’s only two elements that controls the human being. That’s either doubt or faith, one or the other. You’re possessed of one that dominates your life. Just depends on how much faith you have, how high you can rise. But first it’s got to be faith.”
“You must be born again. Everything has to die away. All your theology, all your thinking, all you ever was or ever expect to be, your life and everything else dies away. And then the Holy Spirit comes in. That’s when you take off hats, shoes, stand before God. “Nothing in my arms I bring, simply to thy cross I cling.” That’s where Moses had to come, where he could obey what God said do: the Burning Bush Conference. Then God said, “I’ll show you My glory now,” after he was willing to go.”
“When He said, “You must be born again,” that don’t mean jump up-and-down at the altar. That don’t mean walk back there, and shake hands with the pastor. That don’t mean all this foolishness that we’ve seen done. It don’t mean putting your name on a church book. It means death to your first being, and life to the second being. It means that the Blood has been applied, and you’re identified by the Life of Jesus Christ. And if He be the Vine, and we be the branches, the Life that’s in the branch is in the—also from the Vine. It’ll bear the fruit.”
“To be born of the Spirit is to believe and obey the teaching of the Bible by the Holy Ghost. And a man that’s born of the Spirit will obey God’s Word regardless of what any tradition tells him. To be born again means to be birthed from above… To be born of the Spirit is to believe and behave yourself in the Spirit, is to understand and believe with your heart that Jesus is Christ and This is His Word, that no other words can be added to It or taken away from It without your name taken out of the Book of Life.”
“And your character will not mix with the world, if you are being molded in the form of God, by letting the mind that was in Christ be in you. That’s the control tower, the direction.”
A soul that has undergone the process of the New Birth is under the control of God and will always believe God’s Word by faith. A soul that is unregenerate  is under the control of Satan and will always doubt God’s Word and reject it in favor of man-made ideas, creeds, philosophies, traditions, dogmas and intellectual conceptions of men.

Ezekiel 36:26-27 - “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. 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]”.

“The NATURE of your SOUL is—is God, IF you’re BORN AGAIN. IF it’s NOT, it’s of the world.”
