The Love of Christ has made me closer to Him and I will serve the Lord with all my Heart always (Eternal Personal Relationship)
I have been a so called born again for 21 years, yes so called Born Again until I came across and read Paul C. Jong's e-book, it has totally made a changed in me, 360 degree return to the basic understanding of Salvation... Have I been Truly been again? yes now that it had been revealed to me that the one and only savior of my soul Jesus has took all my sins in His Baptism by John the Baptist... The Baptism of my savior Jesus Christ made by John the Baptist is the very Foundation of salvation... It is starting point of redemption when Jesus accepted it in Righteousness meaning for the Love for all sinners (world) of which I am the worst.(John 3:16), I can not explain how the gift of Christ the Holy spirit in me has made...yes, Christ presence in me has given me more wisdom and understanding of his Word... Thank you brother Paul C. Jong I am now Born Again sinless because you have revealed to me my savior, my Lord Jesus Christ...The one and only Lamb of God who took all my sins away . Amen.
A man is Born of Water and Spirit is actually When we believes in our Heart That we belong to Jesus our Messiah( The Word) and the Spirit is the Gift of God/Christ, the substance and shadow of a follower of God.
Christ is the provider of Water (Water) to those who are thirst. It is the Living water or eternal Life.
“In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)” (John 7:37-39}
The Holy spirit was given to us after Our Lord Jesus was glorified, indeed we already have that mark that we already have his substance we become His property, Children of God..
The Word, Eternal Life is the same God Yehovah/ the “I AM” .
Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again: But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life. (john 4:13-14)
Christ came from the Father to save us with His Word (John 3:16) , In this passage the Father Gave his Son (the Word) to save us and by believing we become Born Again. The Word, Who became like us is Jesus (John 1:14). His Birth with Mary the Virgin will testify of the Truth:
1Jn 5:6 This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and with the blood. His Human Birth (John 1:14)
1Jn 5:7 And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is the truth.
The angel (Messenger of God) who appeared to Mary made a testimony of Jesus Birth (luke 1:30-31). The spirit of God ( Mat_12:18, Mat_17:5; Psa_2:7; Isa_42:1, Isa_42:21; Mar_1:11, Mar_9:7; Luk_3:22, Luk_9:35; Eph_1:6; Col_1:13; 2Pe_1:17). 1Jn 5:8 For there are three who bear witness, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and the three agree in one. The Spirit (Elohim/ Triune God), Water (The Word or Scripture/Prophecy Christ ) and Blood as Redemption for our Sin starting from his Baptism from John the Baptist to his Death and Resurrection. All of this was made manifest by Christ. “That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the Word, who believe” (Eph 5:26), In this passage Christ is also the Word and is the same Word who became flesh, Amen.
The Water maybe interpreted as the Word, Christ, The Eternal Life, and Living Water etc….
Ezekiel's words bring together much of what has been said: "I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean; I will cleanse you from all your impurities and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws (Ezek 36:25-27). Additional supporting verses are Joh_4:14, Joh_6:35, Joh_6:51, Joh_7:37-39; Exo_17:6; Psa_36:8, Psa_36:9, Psa_46:4; Isa_12:3, Isa_35:6; Isa_41:17, Isa_41:18, Isa_43:20, Isa_44:3, Isa_49:10, Isa_55:1-3; Jer_2:13; Eze_47:1-9; Zec_13:1, Zec_14:8; 1Co_10:4; Rev_7:17, Rev_21:6, Rev_22:1, Rev_22:2, Rev_22:17
My conclusion is that, Water is the Word of Christ, the very foundation of my Faith of which I believed that cleansed me. I love Him because he loves me first, He took away all my sins with the Baptism he received from John the Baptist, He took all sufferings in my behalf with His stripes unto the point of Death and nailed it onto His Cross or a stake, and with his blood which He made to purchased me from my old self a sinner by nature , I become a brother and a Son to him, a member of his Catholic (Universal) congregation (acts 20-28), Spirit is His Gift to me, My Councilor the shadow of my Faith… you may know Christ lives in me by my works which is the shadow of my Faith in Christ.
Jesus I thank you for the Gift (Grace and Mercy Suffering and Love), the only Way the Truth and the Life, I am truly Born Again in your Name. Amen.
I thank God for you Brother Paul C. Jong, You are among the few with a compassionate, Loving and Unselfish Heart , the Books sent to me has made me wholly changed and secured, Brother John Shin for your never ending patience on me, the Staff of NLM…Thank you!!!!
May the Gospel of Christ (Water, Spirit and His Blood) be Blessings to us all.
In Christ we belong,
Emmanuel Yao Tandoc
