Deuteronomy 30:6 The LORD your God will circumcise your hearts and the hearts of your descendants, so that you may love him with all your heart and with all your soul, and live.

Jeremiah 4:4 "Circumcise yourselves to the LORD And remove the foreskins of your heart, Men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem, Or else My wrath will go forth like fire And burn with none to quench it, Because of the evil of your deeds."
Evangelical, first you said that to be "born again" is to be "filled with the spirit." This was your proof that John the Baptist was "born again" in his mother's womb, and you were "born again" from your own birth.

Now you change again. Now you say we can be "born again" whenever people's hearts were changed, even likening this to the O.T. command of circumcision.

Nicodemus was a teacher of the law, and when Jesus told him he must be born again, Nicodemus knew that this teaching never existed in the scripture.

You should learn from Nicodemus, or perhaps Drake. It seems he has abandoned you because of your strange teachings.
