Born Again: 'Are you kidding?'

I find it silly for a person to claim as born again if not practicing the right things in his or her life. A typical exam is my neighbor who keeps on worshipping and listening to God's words in the Holy Bible. But, they are always drinking alcohol and creating loud noises at night.
Have you ever meet a false prophet in the neighborhood?

Your neighbor should worship with acts and not just words.

@marguicha I do agree with you. It is best to do good deeds not by just saying words.

I don't mind their business for being like this. I just only react if being affected or insulted deliberately. This particular neighbor is provocative last time by letting their dog barks for 24 hours last Valentine's Day. They left the dog without any food and water. It was caged up, too. My mother called their attention and if they continue this, they will be reported to the barangay here.

All I got to say is amen to that. I do get sometimes we fall astray but not that far. You a bad person to say you born again.My opinion and as long as they admit then I will go as far to say ok you born again but most people do not and I do laugh at their hypocrisies.

What a shame, making believe they are following God's commands, yet living life as they please! Born again, means to 'change directions' to turn around and live our life different.

@Shavkat One man I know was taking up a collection, supposedly for his 'church.' The idiot doesn't even believe in God, let alone go to church!

That really damages the credibility of the message.

@Shavkat Much water has flowed under the bridge since those teachings. It is time individuals started thinking for themselves.

@allknowing I agree. We need to do the actions more with a good spirit from within.

Everyone's beliefs are different. I just live my life my way and let others do the same

I do not know of any false prophets in the neighborhood. I know there are many in this world, I just keep to myself and my faith and do my praying at home

most of the time, it is not the religion/philosophy that is the problem, but the practitioners, meaning, how it is practiced.

Yes I have meet false prophets. They like praying with loud voices but afterwards their actions don't match with what they are praying.
