John 3:1-11
Nicodemus And Jesus
John 3:1-11
Nicodemus was a man of the Pharisees and a ruler of the Jews: The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, "Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou first, except God be with him." `
Jesus answered and said unto him,"Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."
Nicodemus saith unto him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?"
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit."
Nicodemus answered and said unto him, "How can these things be?"
Jesus answered and said unto him, "Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness."
Note
I used my KJV so it has some of the old English words being used.
Blweth, listeth, hearest, goeth, kowest. But if you read it through I believe you can understand what it is saying.
In these verses it show us that we have already been born of the water and when we accept Christ as our Savior we receive the Spirit. Without Christ we are just flesh.
The wind we can hear it but don't know where it comes from and where it goes. We don't see the Spirit where it comes from and where it goes.
