This question comes from John 3:5 and is asked in response to those who twist this passage to be in harmony with man-made false doctrine. Does this passage teach the necessity of water baptism or is “born of water” talking about a physical birth? We answer that question in this Bible Q-n-A video.
The Question: Is it ever too late to be restored? “Can salvation be regained after 2 Peter 2:20,21 and Hebrews 6:4-6 if a onetime believer sincerely repents and desires to get back into the graces of God?” – from Steve Steve, I believe the article “The Point Of No Return” gives the biblical answer to [...]
