"John 3:3

New King James Version (NKJV)


3 Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”


This Gospel of John was written a lot longer than 100 years ago so you are wrong again.

Give up. Your too far off to convince me."

That's an interpretation from the Greek.  Where is the Aramaic that Jesus used to speak it?  Where are those texts.

I'm not out to convince you only to point out the absurdity of the "literalists." 

If you read beyond John 3:3 you will see that Jesus was talking about being born of the spirit.  You and everyone else on the Planet is an eternal spirit.  That's what Jesus was talking about.  Your spirit is not your mind, it is that bright spark of light, the divine that resides in each of us.  You don't learn about yourself as spirit by reading a book - any book.  You learn about yourself as spirit by turning within and discovering yourself as spirit and following the spiritual pat all of us came here to learn about.

You're ignoring the main issue on this thread.  Where's the original New Testament texts?  You know, those in Aramaic.  Why are you ignoring them?
