Whoops, the final Scripture reference in my last post (post #35) was supposed to be BOTH 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 AND Philippians 1:6. The good news (for me ;)) is that if you click on the reference, and then scroll down when you get there, Philippians 1:6 is there :)(y) ~1 Thessalonians...

As far as the when/how of being born again, as you can see from your many replies, there are many answers (I have found that this is often due to the lack of a common understanding or definition of the terminologies that we use, as well, at times, the differences in the presuppositional beliefs...

Hello again @Chosen7Saint, part of what I meant to say (in paragraph #4 of my post above) was that I believe that God was at work in my heart years before I finally came to Him in saving faith and believed (IOW, in my case, there may have been a period of time between His quickening of me and my...

Hello @Chosen7Saint, mine is a similar story to yours actually. I was baptized as an infant and raised in the church (so to speak). I went to Sunday School through 7th grade, sung in the children's choir, was confirmed, went on some retreats (where I remember being led in a sinner's prayer of...
