In this world, there are many who want to be born again by simply believing in Jesus. However, I would like to tell you firstly that being born again is not up to us, in other words, it is something which cannot come about as a result through our deeds alone.

There are many pseudo newswriters these days, especially in developing countries. They pretend to be newswriters but usually extort money from their victims, threatening to expose something their victims have done. The word pseudo means something that looks genuine but is not the real thing. In other words, it refers to something whose true self is completely different from its outside appearance.

The words of God in both the Old Testament and the New Testament are important and precious to those of us who believe in God. We cannot be remiss about even one phrase of those words because the words of God are the words of life.

1 John 1:9 applies only to the righteous. If a sinner who was not yet redeemed tried to atone for his daily sins according to the words of this passage and confessed his wrongdoing, his sins would not be expiated. Do you see what I’m saying here? This passage does not apply to sinners who are not born again.

The theological theory of predestination and divine election, which is one of the basic theologies which make up Christian doctrine, has led many who want to believe in Jesus to misunderstand the word of God. This misguided theory has caused much confusion.

In the Old Testament, there was a high priest named Melchizedek. In the time of Abraham, Chedorlaomer and the kings allied with him, took away with them all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah. Abraham armed his trained servants, who were born in his household, and led them into the war against Chedorlaomer and his allies.

So many people in the world do not know why Jesus came to this world and was baptized by John the Baptist. Therefore let us talk about the purpose of the baptism of Jesus and about John the Baptist who baptized Him.

Jesus Christ says, “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.” These words have struck fear in the hearts of many Christians, causing them to work hard to do the will of God.
