The Necessity of Being Born Again</b><p>In <a href="/john/3-3.htm">John 3:3</a>, Jesus tells Nicodemus, "Truly, truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again." This profound truth emphasizes the need for spiritual rebirth. Just as physical birth is essential for life, spiritual rebirth is crucial for eternal life. It's a transformation that begins with faith in Christ, leading to a new life filled with purpose and hope.<p><b>2. The Mystery of the Spirit</b><p><a href="/john/3-8.htm">John 3:8</a> reveals, "The wind blows where it wishes. You hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit." The Holy Spirit's work in our lives is mysterious yet powerful. Like the wind, we may not see Him, but we can feel His presence and witness His transformative power in our lives.<p><b>3. The Simplicity of Faith</b><p>In <a href="/john/3-16.htm">John 3:16</a>, we find the heart of the Gospel: "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life." This verse underscores the simplicity and accessibility of salvation. It's not about complex rituals or unattainable standards; it's about believing in Jesus and accepting His gift of eternal life.<p><b>4. The Love of God</b><p><a href="/john/3-16.htm">John 3:16</a> also highlights the immense love of God for humanity. His love is not passive but active, demonstrated through the giving of His Son. This love is unconditional and available to all, inviting us to respond with gratitude and devotion.<p><b>5. The Purpose of Christ's Coming</b><p><a href="/john/3-17.htm">John 3:17</a> clarifies, "For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him." Jesus' mission was not one of judgment but of salvation. His life, death, and resurrection offer a path to redemption, emphasizing God's desire for reconciliation rather than condemnation.<p><b>6. The Reality of Judgment</b><p>While Jesus came to save, <a href="/john/3-18.htm">John 3:18</a> reminds us, "Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son." This verse highlights the reality of judgment for those who reject Christ. It's a sobering reminder of the importance of faith and the consequences of unbelief.<p><b>7. The Light of the World</b><p><a href="/john/3-19.htm">John 3:19-21</a> speaks of light and darkness: "This is the verdict: The Light has come into the world, but men loved the darkness rather than the Light because their deeds were evil." Jesus is the Light that exposes and dispels darkness. Embracing Him means stepping into the light, where truth and righteousness prevail.<p><b>8. The Call to Live by the Truth</b><p>In <a href="/john/3-21.htm">John 3:21</a>, we are encouraged to live by the truth: "But whoever practices the truth comes into the Light, so that it may be seen clearly that what he has done has been accomplished in God." Living by the truth means aligning our lives with God's Word, allowing His light to shine through us and reflect His glory.<p><b>9. The Humility of John the Baptist</b><p><a href="/john/3-30.htm">John 3:30</a> captures John the Baptist's humility: "He must increase; I must decrease." This attitude of humility is essential for every believer. It's a reminder to prioritize Christ's glory over our own, allowing Him to take center stage in our lives.<p><b>10. The Assurance of Eternal Life</b><p>Finally, <a href="/john/3-36.htm">John 3:36</a> offers assurance: "Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life. Whoever rejects the Son will not see life. Instead, the wrath of God remains on him." This promise of eternal life is a source of hope and confidence for believers, affirming that our faith in Christ secures our place in God's eternal kingdom.</div><div id="botbox"><div class="padbot"><div align="center"><br><br><a href="index.html">Bible Hub Top 10 Lists</a><br><span class="p"><br /><br /></span></div></div></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="left"><a href="lessons_from_john_2.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="Lessons from John 2"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="Lessons from John 2" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="lessons_from_john_4.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="Lessons from John 4"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="Lessons from John 4" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script> <br /><br /> </div><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchapnoad.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
