What is bornagain? You can be bornagain anytime and anywhere, and you must.

   According to Jesus bornagain is transformation, bornagain is reformation.

   Bornagain is death and resurrection, or rebirth in Jesus Christ. That means, bornagain is change, a total change - a total change of one’s idea, principle and one’s point of view, or attitude to the idea, principle and attitude of, Jesus Christ, a total change of thought and mindset to the thought and mindset of, Jesus Christ, a total change of one’s sinful heart to the loveful heart of, Jesus Christ.
It is a total change from one’s born character to the born character of, Jesus Christ, God, a total change of one’s life in Him.

   Jesus said to Nicodemus, "unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God" (John 3: 3)   But, what is bornagain? Jesus Himself had explained ‘what is bornagain?’
   He had explained how to see, or enter the kingdom of God. Yes, He had explained how to have, or inherit eternal life.

   To have, or inherit eternal life is to see, or enter the kingdom of God undoubtedly. So, “What should I do to inherit eternal life, means, what should I do to see the kingdom of God?”
   A man asked to Jesus, "What should I do to inherit eternal life?" Jesus answered, "Keep the commandments, sell what you have, give to the poor (leave everything) and follow Me." (Matthew 19: 16 – 21)
   Therefore, keeping the commandments of God, leaving the world behind(that means not to love the world in the heart for Jesus have not come today in physical to follow him) and following Him(spreading the gospel in character and words) is bornagain, that is how one can have, or inherit eternal life, that is how one can see the kingdom of God.

   Of course, Believing Jesus as our Saviour and repenting one’s sins to not to sin anymore and keeping his Commandments and, pursuing to resemble Him, following Him is bornagain. That is how we will inherit eternal life.
   Repentation is necessary to keeping the commandments of God. To keep the commandments of God one must repent his sins.
   But, what is sin(which one must repent)?
   The breaking of, the law, the commandments of God is sin, for, it is written, ‘by the law comes the knowledge of sin.’ (Romans 3: 20)

   How to follow Jesus?

   One cannot follow Jesus truly unless he believe and have faith in Him.
   To follow Jesus is to live and tell the truth, the love of God - the commandments of God and the gospel of Jesus Christ to other until we die, or sacrifice for Him who sacrifices for us.

   To follow Jesus one must believe Him first and have faith in Him. To have faith in Him is to keep His commandments. Yes, faith is action, having faith in Him is keeping the commandments of God and, following, Him.
   Of course, to follow Jesus one must keep the commandments of God, that is the Ten Commandments and all the teaching, or commandments of Jesus, which includes spreading His gospel, yes, this is one of His commandments.

   How can one be bornagain?
   To be bornagain one must be willing to accept and live every word of God, or one must have willingness to accept and live every word of God which He has given or will be given.

   One can be bornagain, or one is bornagain only when he, know, believe, see the love and grace of God in Jesus Christ and, know, realize he is a sinner and desires to change in Jesus Christ and pursue, keep changing to completely resemble Him.

   John 9: 41 Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, ‘we see.’ Therefore your sin remains.” 'we see' mean we are good, we are perfect or we have no sin.
   Unless, in Jesus Christ, one sees his sins and know, that, he is a sinner, and desire and decide to, change, transform, or bornagain and pursue to resemble Him there is no way to be bornagain but to remain sinning.
   Therefore, if one does not see his sin but want to see and be bornagain he should asked God - 'My Father, my Lord, make me see my sins, help me repent and reform me, give me bornagain...'

   So, One must be bornagain everyday, like Paul said, "I die everyday."
   One must see his sin everyday, for, sin always enters our heart, we commit adultery, murder, covet, proud etc. in the mind. And one must Pray, with faith that God has forgiven him even before he asked forgiveness, one must know faithless is also sin.
   ‘My Father, my Lord, please forgive me for I commit adultery, for I am proud, etc. now in my heart, thank you for forgiving me{ because He have forgiven us even before we born becasuse of Jesus} ... In Jesus name I pray Amen.
   Then, one must stop thinking evil things but pursue {to achieve the clean heart of Jesus} to have good thought, good attitude and character of Jesus Christ for the glory of God.

   Of course, one must always pursue to have good thinking, good attitude for the glory of God, to achieve the clean heart, or mind of Jesus. One must dominate his thought with good thoughts which is according to God. Thinking for family and others, thinking for what one should do or work for His glory, how one should spread His goodnews, how one should work in the Lord, thinking to find more examples, knowledge, or truth of everyday life and of God, thinking anything which is not against God but only according to Him and for His glory.
Of course, whatever one think and do, one must think and do for the glory of God. One should not be consumed by thinking but one should think, use his brain, or mind because of Him and for His glory.
   One must remember that, he must utilize his brain as much as he use his other body parts, for, God give us to utilize it, indeed, it is also the free gift of God.

   That is how one must die, bornagain everyday, anytime.
   That is, one must see his sin, ask forgiveness to God, thank Him for forgiving him even before he ask forgiveness and keep his heart, mind and action clean in the Lord like Jesus Christ.
Indeed, a bornagain person keep transforming to completely resemble Him.

One can be bornagain everywhere and anytime. Indeed, we must be bornagain anytime and everywhere.

God never force man to be bornagain, for, He is love and love never force. He wants the decision of Man.
So, one must take decision to be bornagain and be bornagain in Jesus.

What is truth? What is the truth of the world? What and where is the proof?

   Truth is many things.
   Truth can be explained and proof, so, here, we will explain and give proof of the truth of the world.
   Truth is true, but, love is everything. Therefore, love is truth.

   The more one ask question, the more he will receive answer. So, let us ask question to find the truth. Blessed is he who ask question to find the truth, for, he will find the truth.

   If love is truth, then, what is love? What is the greatest love? How should we explain the greatest love or greatest action of love?
   If someone sacrifice his life for someone that is the greatest love, the greatest action of love.
   God love the world so much that He has sent His only Son Jesus Christ to, die, sacrifice for the world to save the world.
.
   But, why do He(Jesus) have to sacrifice, or why is it necessary for Him to die, or sacrifice for the world?
   Because, we think of evil, speak of evil and do evil, that means, the world is evil.
   Even the government of the world punish those who do evil, they even give a death sentence. Is not it? Sure, they do.
    Likewise, God is going to burn the world, for, the world is evil. For, God is truth, God is love, and evil cannot stay long, before truth and love, before God.
   But before He burn the world God sent His Only Son to sacrifice and save the world because He so love the world. He gives the world a chance, so that, we(the world) can live with Him forever.
   That's the truth of the world.
. 
   And, Jesus has died for us on Friday, and rest on Saturday. He rest on Saturday because God made the world on six day and rest on the Sabbath, the seventh day of the week, which we now called Saturday. Therefore, we must also rest on the Sabbath.
   Jesus also, while He was alive, always rest on Saturday, He attend the church on Saturday, and He also rest even while He is death, yes, God made Him rest on the Sabbath while He was death. And if we are follower of Jesus we must surely rest on the holy Sabbath of God, that is Saturday.
. 
   And on Sunday God wakes Him up. He show it, practically, by action that God can rise men after death. This is also truth. And He will raise those who believe this truth, this love, those who believe Him and will keep with Him. But He will also rise those who don’t accept His love, those who don’t believe this truth to be puhished, and He will cast them in eternal hell where there is crying and gnashing of teeth.
. 
   And, before He(Jesus) ascended to heaven He told to His disciples to preach this truth, this love to all the world, that is that, He sacrifice for the world and rise again, and He also teach that one should love his enemy. He also said, that, ‘after this truth, this love, that is His, story, gospel is preached to all the world the end will come.
   And He will come back and take with him, whoever believe and live this truth, whoever believe and follow Him to live with Him and His Father, God, forever.
 .                                                                      
   We should know and remember that, truth is explainable and can be proof.
 .
   We know that these things, which are written here, are truth, because, His followers has proved it. If He have only one follower from whom we heard His story, we will suspect it, I will even suspect it. But He has not only one but even His disciples are 12(twelve), needless to say others to know how many are there to give proof that He has come die, resurrect and ascended to heaven again.
   His disciples who have seen Jesus living, dying and ascending to heaven believes in Him and they teach their children and also children's children and so on, to believe in, to have faith in Him. And also, they save the story in written, which we now called Bible.
 .
   Do we think those many follower of Jesus are fool to tell their children lies. Do we think such many men will tell their children and children's children, or grand children the same lie. No, not at all. Therefore, we are confident that Jesus Christ do really die, resurrect and ascended to heaven again for our benefit.
   Can one tell his children a story of lies, that too, for their belief? No, is the appropriate answer. No one would want to tell their children a story of lies and that too for their belief.
   If one cannot tell his children a story of lies for their belief, how can 11(One has betrayed Jesus) people tell their children a story of lies for their belief. Therefore, it is certain that the story of Jesus was true. And, minimum 11 of his followers have witness it. They are the eye witnesses.
 .
   And not only that, we know that the story of Jesus is true, because, geologist, historian,  researchers etc. have proof it. And, they also discover the city, or things written in the Bible. By age also, it is only approximately 2000years, a years of which the world have enough evidence that He do really come.
.
   And you can also, stay, live with God forever if you believe and follow Jesus Christ. If one believe Him He must take baptism and keep the Sabbath Holy, keep His commandments and follow Him. One must also tell, or preach this truth, this love to his loved ones and fellowman.
   Indeed, if we believe in Jesus we must do three things, that is, to keep the commandment of Jesus, that includes praying in His name and taking baptism, to keep the Sabbath holy and to tell the truth to others.
 .
   What is baptism?
   Baptism is an immersion of the whole body in water, it is a confirmation that one believe in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and he accept as the Saviour of him and the world, it is to die from one’s sins, to burry one’s sins and rise not to sin anymore but to live a new life that is to keep the commandments of God and follow Jesus Christ that is pursue to resemble Him in the heart, or mind, speech and action.
 .
   So, if you believe, pray like this, ‘Our Father, give me strength and courage so that I can live your truth, your love, so that I can follow Jesus Christ even in the worsest time. (ask whatever you want)... Let it be your will. Because of Jesus and in His name I pray, or All these I pray because of Jesus and in His name, Amen’.
   We must always pray to God in Jesus name because He has connect God and men by giving His life and we must love Him by doing what He want, by keeping His commandments. Because Jesus have died for us we can ask, or pray anything to God for His glory.
 .
   We must take decision and be willing, to be bornagain, to believe and follow Jesus. Repenting one’s sin, keeping the commandments of God and following Jesus is bornagain. Without willingness, yes, without willingness to accept and live every truth, that is, every word, or commandment of God no one can follow Jesus Christ till death.
