    It's all about Leviticus, that's the one where everyone who looks at anyone strangely gets put to death. That's badass.

    There is far more to the book of Leviticus apart from the stoning of people to death, which is no longer applicable to Christianity due to Christ's death.

    The wages of sin is death.
    Christ died on our behalf and our sins died with Him.
    Christ rose again from the grave, through this Resurrection we were given new life, and a new chance to put things right with God before the final judgement.

    Every repentant Christian has gone through the penalty of death in a spiritual sense and thus has this new life.

    What was his sin seeing as he is living a life of penance?

    Sin = falling short of God's glory. He doesn't list his sins, but one would be rather dishonest to say that they have never fallen short of God's standard ever.

    The significance of the phrase "born again" is that through accepting Christ as His Saviour, His old sinful self has passed away, and He has been given new life. This is described above. It's probably the most important part of Christian belief.

    Where do you actually get a sign like that?

    Its just a piece of corriboard with the letters and numbers printed onto it (or stuck, hard to tell from the picture). Printers usually do them.

    Yes he got it back. Turned up in Kildare Town. He was at the matches today on the canal end. Funnily enough there was a similar sign being held up that was advertising a radion station.
