Besides the physical ordinance of baptism and the laying on of hands, one must be spiritually born again to gain exaltation and eternal life.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
We begin the process of being born again through exercising faith in Christ, repenting of our sins, and being baptized by immersion for the remission of sins by one having priesthood authority.
In baptism, new Christians become part of a body of fellow believers who are called to spiritually encourage one another and hold one another responsible for consistent Christian living.
If you accept the belief that baptism incorporates us in the mystical body of Christ, into the divine DNA, then you might say that the Holy Spirit is present in each of us, and thus we have the capacity for the fullness of redemption, of transformation.
Jesus said, 'Except a man be born of water and of the spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.' There are no exceptions. Baptism is a necessary ordinance.
Total immersion in and saturation with the Savior's gospel are essential steps in the process of being born again.
A rebirth out of spiritual adversity causes us to become new creatures.
Being born again means you have a new concept of yourself.
There is a divine moment in our lives when we all become one. It's called procreation, and it is reborn, continually and forever.
By one Spirit we are all baptised into one body.
Spiritual beings, either from the beginning or soon thereafter, become what they are to be for ever and ever.
