Born again Christians started when Jesus rose from the dead, having taken all peoples sins on him when he died, three days previous. He told us that no sacrifices are in order, that the perfect Lamb of God has been sacrificed. John 3:3-5 -Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, 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, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.""Born again Christian" has almost become a catchphrase for a particular "brand" of Christianity, but Jesus taught that it was necessary if one was to "see the kingdom of God." Being born again is and always has been a fundamental doctrine of New Testament Christianity. "Born of water and the Spirit" is a clear reference to baptism, as borne out by Peter in his sermon on the Day of Pentecost. Acts 2:38 - Then Peter said to them, "Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit."

Are the born again Christians the only saved people?

A:Unless born-again Christians believe they are the only saved people, one should wonder why they set themselves apart from other Christians. On the other hand, all other Christians believe they are 'saved', or will be saved, so for them the answer must surely be 'no'. Who knows, maybe the atheists are right after all, and salvation has no real meaning.
