Answer

According to some Scriptures we enter the Kingdom of Heaven where Christ is King through our Spiritual birth in Baptism . "'Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born anew, he cannot see the kingdom of God.' Nicodemus said to him, 'How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?' Jesus answered, 'Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.'" (John Ch 3) It is obvious that we should see baptism as a parallel to our natural birth into the country in which we are born.
