Commentary
Born again is to have the Spirit of God dwelling within.
Born again by the Holy Spirit, who comes to dwell within you, and who will also raise you to life again on the last day of the world, the day of the Lord.
"the Spirit dwelling within you shall quicken your mortal bodies"
Romans 8:11 KJV
[11] But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
"I will come again"
John 14:1-4 KJV
[1] Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. [2] In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. [3] And if I go and prepare a place for you, (Then) I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. [4] And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
"he shall appear the second time"
Hebrews 9:27-28 KJV
[27] And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: [28] So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.
There is no seven year period of tribulation in the Bible.
The seven year period of the 490 year Seventy Week prophecy was the seven year ministry of Jesus.
Daniel 9:24-27 is now history because it was all about Jesus Christ, not antichrist.
The 490 year Seventy Week prophecy ended in 34 AD.
There is no rapture for Christians before the tribualtion.
The Bible says that it is through much tribulation that we enter heaven.
Acts 14:22 KJV
[22] Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.
Do not listen to talse teachers, but read the Holy Bible for yourself.
You have to make the decision for yourself to follow Jesus.
You have to stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
You have to explain to Jesus why you did not follow him .
You have to tell Jesus why you did not keep his commandments.
Not knowing the commandments is not an excuse with Jesus because in the New Covenant he has written his Ten Commandments on the hearts and minds of all men.
Read for yourself what the HOLY BIBLE SAYS.
AMEN
