BORN AGAIN
John 3:1
Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.
Nicodemus
– Wealthy (John 19:39)
– Pharisee – The separated one.
– Member of Sanhedrin – 70 member supreme court for Jews.
John 3:2
This man came to Jesus by night and said to him, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do unless God is with him.”
John 3:3
Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
ANOTHEN
1. From the beginning
2. Again/ a 2nd Time
3. From above/From God.
BORN AGAIN
A transformation brought about by the power and grace of God that is so radical that it is as if you are starting all the way over again from a new/2nd beginning point.
John 3:3
Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
The Kingdom of God = anywhere where what God wants done, is done.
Kingdom = Realm & Reign
Ephesians 2:8-9
For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
