  actually so many languages here. so many, if i am not mistaken more than 12 i think.
  
  some of my fellows here think that english is the language of the rich and cultured and refined, next to Tagalog. Bisaya is often times the object of ridicule here.
  
  yup, it's sad there's discrimination here. i hope i can improve my Tagalog too so that i can talk to them, if need be in that language. who knows somebody might get saved by it.
  
  

  actually Binisaya (hope I spell this right) is a beautiful language.

  You are better off listening and learning from Jesus.
  
  12 If I told you earthly things and you don't believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things?
  
  What earthly thing did Jesus tell him?
  
  7 Don't marvel that I said to you,'You must be born anew.'
  
  What is Born Again?
  
  4 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?"
  
  To be born through your mother's womb is to be born of water.
  
  5 Jesus answered, "Most certainly I tell you, unless one is born of water..."
  
  Those born of water cannot enter into the Kingdom of God for the Kingdom of God is a Spiritual Kingdom. But you must first be alive, be born of water.
  
  5 Jesus answered, "Most certainly I tell you, unless one is born of ... spirit, he can't enter into the Kingdom of God!"
  
  What is it like to be Born of Spirit?
  
  8 The wind blows where it wants to, and you hear its sound, but don't know where it comes from and where it is going. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit."
  
  The one who asked Jesus believed that by simply following the rules and regulations (the Jewish Law; the secret formula) will enable him to enter the Kingdom of God after his death.
  
  Jesus told him that to be Born of the Spirit is an earthly event.
  
  Christians nowadays have come up with a new "formula" that they think will enable them to enter the Kingdom of God after their death.
  
  They should listen to Jesus and not any wise man on earth:
  
  3 Jesus answered him, "Most certainly, I tell you, unless one is born anew, he can't see the Kingdom of God."
  
  Your mother gave birth to you. Only God can give you birth of Spirit. Ask God. Dp not ask any wise man; do not ask any holy book; do not ask any idol; do not ask any concept of God in your head. Ask God.

  If you do not believe in Jesus when he said that you must be born again, you cannot enter into the eternal Kingdom of God, for Jesus said:
  
  
  16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
