Episode 23: I'm Christian but am I born again?

    Hey guys! I haven't posted since forever and I'm starting exams two days after the writing of this post so I really shouldn't be posting now. I've been putting off any articles I wanted to write because I've been busy with basketball and school work so that I had to take a break from programming (and project monkey) but I can't put this topic off any longer. I've had this discussion often recently so I'm writing this for Christians that do believe in the Bible but can't give you an answer they are sure of when you ask "What does it mean to be born-again?".




Sorry, I noticed most mobile devices can't display this short comic     
   
    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". So what does that mean? I will explain it all in my own words, but in order to avoid denominational arguments and debates, first lets see it in God's words. As I said earlier, I'm not writing this to convince anyone to become a Christian, I'm writing it for Christians who already believe that Jesus is "the way, the truth and the life (John 14:6)" yet aren't sure what it means to be born-again. So I'll just rapid fire scriptures that explicitly explain it. See the meanings yourself before I even state them in my own words.

Episode 18: My Church Notes

By the way, this isn't Nigerian native attire. Can you guess where it's from?

        Hey people! What's up? I recently started taking notes of church services I attend in Evernote. Evernote is an app that allows one to back up stuff online, meaning that I can share my notes with others. I know that most people won't care, but for the few people that will benefit from this, every Sunday, I will update this post with a link to the note taken in church that day. Most of the time, the messages will be by Pastor Jonathan Imogu (Snr) and Rev. Gbeminiyi Eboda, the pastors of the churches I attend at home and in school respectively. And by the way, that's what I wore to church today. And no, that's not my church in the picture, it's my scattered room.
      If any note has a faulty link, of if two links lead to the same note, please let me know by leaving me a comment. Happy reading!


Prayer - Rev Eboda - https://www.evernote.com/shard/s210//sh/5f704d1a-d486-4ec2-8eee-307867eebb60/9b0997b48441761db85b28278c942bde

Eight reasons to praise God - Rev Eboda - https://www.evernote.com/shard/s210//sh/8be625e9-9582-4f69-96da-7f554afea007/3ac8b9339bb58b785e1e8ccd1b478611

Fresh Oil - Rev. Eboda - https://www.evernote.com/shard/s210//sh/11fddfa3-cc6b-4ead-a54d-13743627acfe/9924431e8f55070c7440dd4097e9722b

Blessing Your Pastor - Pastor Yemi Adeoti (05/08/12) - Just click on the message title to go to the message. I think that's better than the way I used to do it, posting the message then the link separately. Also, I will be indicating the date of the message from now on. Today happened to be Rev. Eboda's appreciation service for his birthday so a guest minister preached on blessing your man of God and I actually did learn something new.
