Are Baptists Going to Hell? Part 3

Hello,

Jesus spoke:
"Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6  That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit."          John 3:5-6 

Born of water
Born of Spirit
Born of flesh

Most church denominations consider "born of water" is water baptism.
Most church denominations consider "born of Spirit" is Holy Spirit baptism.
Most church denominations consider "born of flesh" is born of your Mom.

Jesus continued to speak:
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."  John 3:16 
Does John 3:16 negate John 3:5-6? Should John 3:16 cause a person to ignore John 3:5-6.

In Baptist Bible colleges and seminaries, I was taught to read Scripture for what it says not to spiritualize or correct Scripture to agree with denominational theology. That in itself is correct. Was it followed in determining Baptist theological doctrines? No. Verses were ignored because they don't agree with Baptist doctrine. A person must combine all of the Scriptures to form theological doctrines. Systematic Theology vs. Biblical Theology. Systematic Theology is written to support the doctrines of a denomination. Biblical Theology is written based only on the written Word.

What do you believe? How did you arrive at your belief system?

The Holy Ghost, after the baptism of the Holy Ghost, had me spending quality time after Baptist seminary education to read the Holy Bible. Jesus was showing me what the Scriptures are saying. I was being retrained, based only on the Holy Bible, not man's training. What does the Holy Bible really say.
