It seems to me over and over again that Jesus is about rebirth.
John 3:5-7
5Jesus answered, "I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. 6Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. 7You should not be surprised at my saying, 'You must be born again.'
Jesus calls us to give up our flesh. A rebirth from the old to the new. I dislike rebirth, it seems that I like the old familiar ways but everything I see in our world is about destruction and rebirth. It's written into every part of our lives.
Jesus I believes calls into all parts of our life wanting to create a new life. He wants to be so much more than just an addition to us humans. He wants to create new life a rebirth.
It seems that sometimes I would rather drag the whole world into how I believe the world should be rather than transform myself into what God calls me to be.
