The most unpopular truth in the world is this sentence which fell from the lips of Christ: "You must be born again."
Consequently, there are all sorts of inventions to remove the truth out of those words. "Oh, yes!" say some, "you must be born again, but that means the application of aqueous fluid to an infant's brow."
As God is true, that teaching is a lie; there is no grain or shade of truth within it. No operation that can be performed by man can ever regenerate the soul. It is the work alone of God the Holy Spirit, who creates us anew in Christ Jesus.
Men do not like that truth.
Spiritual Truth Still Displeases the Natural Man.

John 3:3 ... Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
John 3:7 ... Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
1 Peter 1:23 ... Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
2 Timothy 3:6-7 ... For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.❤
