Slay and are slain eh, Moses?
Did you know Jesus the Carpenter said that to enter the Kingdom of Heaven you have to be born again?
I’m surprised Christians don’t get about in nappies with wet nurses and nannies - apart from the old boy, of course. Born again.
To slay and be slain - there’s the rub.
Anyone who takes centuries-old religious texts hook, line and sinker should contact the old boy’s wet nurse for a consultation.
Tis easy to mock, K.
And easy more so, for you, the court jester [or is that court fool ?].
John 3:4
Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be
born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
All men are 'born of water', when they are born into this world.
A man is 'born of the Spirit', when the Spirit of God touches him. [Revelation 7:3]
I'm amazed K, have you never heard that expression;
"He/her has been touched by God."???

John 14:15
If ye love me, keep my commandments.
16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
17 Even the Spirit of truth;
whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.
20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
1 Corinthians 2:12
Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14
But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
