"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all tings are become new" 2nd Corinthians 5:17.
It is ONLY through the Precious Word of God that anyone can be born-again. Surely, no one can be born into this world again physically...there is no turning back the hands of time. However, you must certainly can be born again, spiritually, into God's family through the Spirit of Christ..."But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his" (Romans 8:9).
The way we become "born again" is found in the Word of God.
"Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever" 1st Peter 1:23.
We are born again by the Word of God. Jesus is the Word of God (John 1:1,14; Revelation 19:13). The following statement sums it up pretty good: If you're born once, then you die twice; if you're born twice, then you die once. If you don't receive Jesus Christ and become a born again Christian, then you will sadly burn in Hellfire for all eternity (John 3:18, 36; Revelation 20:15; 21:8).
Perhaps you say, "That born again stuff makes no sense to me." Well, most people can't explain how a black cow can eat green grass, give white milk, and then it's turned into yellow butter - but they still eat it! The GOOD NEWS (the Gospel) is that it is very easy to have the second birth, i.e., a spiritual birth. God came down to this earth 2,000 years ago and took upon Himself the form of a man. That man was the Lord Jesus Christ (John 1:1,14; 1st Timothy 3:16).
Literally, the GODHEAD became incarnate (Colossians 2:9 - King James Bible). Jesus was born of a virgin (Isaiah 7:14). Jesus never sinned once (2nd Corinthians 5:21). Jesus died, was buried and rose again after three days (1st Corinthians 15:1-4). Jesus shed His blood to pay for all our sins (Colossians 1:14; 1st Peter 1:18,19), and applied that blood to the Mercy Seat in Heaven (Hebrews 9:24-26).
