” I assure you, no one can enter the Kingdom of God without being born of water and the Spirit. Humans can reproduce only human life, but the Holy Spirit gives birth the Spiritual life.” John 3: 5&6
In the above scripture, Jesus is explaining to Nicodemus that in order to be able to enter the Kingdom of God we must be born again. The term “born again” often turns people off, as most don’t understand the meaning. Being born again literally means being born from above. Just as you were brought into this world by a physical birth, you must also be born spiritually. The Holy Spirit gives us that rebirth. When we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior a change occurs from within us that begins to affect how we live and talk. We become a totally new person. We begin to think differently, focus differently and pay close attention to the Word of God. Our priorities begin to change and instead of living for ourselves we begin to live for our God in heaven. John 3:3 is very explicit in telling us that we must be born again in order to reach the Kingdom of God. Jesus says in John 3:3: “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.” Being born again is a spiritual birth that is required by our Lord God in order to reach his heavenly kingdom. We must accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior. The moment we turn from our sins and trust Jesus to forgive our sins we are saved. We have passed from spiritual death to spiritual life, and we have been declared not guilty in God’s court of law. (Romans 3:21-26). Pray to him, praise him and trust him! Remember, we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. (Phil. 4:13) PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
