"Most assuredly I say to you, unless one is born again (from above) he cannot see the kingdom of God." John 3:3
The most important "Heavenly Gift" given to mankind is the sacrifice of God's only Son, Jesus Christ, who died for the sins and transgressions committed against Him! The born-again experience is the Divine transformation of those who believe and make Jesus their Lord!
With all the various denominations, traditions and doctrines in the world today I am afraid the born-again experience has been forgotten and left out of our preaching and teaching, but without this life changing supernatural event there can be no salvation. Nicodemus, the pharisee and religious scholar of his day came to Jesus at night perplexed by His teaching and Jesus told him that he must be born-again to enter eternal life!
Nicodemus didn't understand and Jesus was amazed that he didn't know these things being a teacher of Israel, but that is what it is like today. Salvation is not taught, preached or explained, just pray the sinner's prayer, get baptized and join the church is now the way to Heaven in many churches!
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation, old things have passed away, behold all things become new. II Corinthians 5:17
