The following two passages prove that no one is born again apart from the gospel:
"Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God...And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you" (1 Pet.1:23,25).
"He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all he created" (Jas.1:18).
Believe it or not there are some people on this forum who insist that those who are born again are born again BEFORE they believe the gospel! Those people believe that regeneration precedes faith.
