“Jesus says… that in order to “see the kingdom of God”, one needs to be “born anew” from above. This does not mean starting over from birth, repeating our coming into the world, hoping that a new reincarnation will re-open our chance at a better life… Indeed, it would empty all meaning from the life we have lived, erasing it as if it were a failed experiment, an expired and lost value. No, this is not the rebirth that Jesus speaks of. It is something else. This life is precious in God’s eyes — it identifies us as creatures loved tenderly by Him. This “born anew” that allows us to “enter” the kingdom of God is a generation in the Spirit, a passage through the waters toward the promised land of a creation reconciled with the love of God. It is a rebirth from above with the grace of God. It is not being reborn physically another time.”
Pope Francis
