If you are born into a christian family, does it automatically makes u a christian?

No. Though unfortunately that is the thinking of many that we are christians automatically because our parents our christians. For one to become a christian, the person must be born again (the second birth)

The first birth (perhaps into a christian family) is by the human parents,
The second birth (into the family of God) is by the Holy Spirit.

For the first birth, that which is born of the flesh is flesh
For the second birth, that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

The first birth is not by faith and we dont know when
The second birth is by faith and we know when

The first birth is smeared by the Adamic nature
The second birth is cleansed by the nature of Christ

The first birth has life but for a short time and is mortal
The second birth has life everlasting in immortality.


If your father is a pastor and your mum an evagelist, yet that which is born of the flesh is flesh. You must be born again.
