Now there was a Pharisee named Nicodemus, a leader of the Jews. He came to Jesus by night and said to him, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God; for no one can do these signs that you do apart from the presence of God". Jesus answered him, "Very truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God without being born again". John 3:1-3

The term born again is used to describe the the time a person becomes a Christian.
