Can a religious, moral, powerful, influential and successful person still be missing something?
In John 3, Jesus has a private conversation with Nicodemus—a respected Pharisee, teacher, and member of the Jewish ruling council. Despite his impressive religious credentials, Jesus tells him something shocking: "Ye must be born again." (John 3:7)
In this message, Pastor Tim walks verse by verse through John 3:1-10, explaining why no amount of religion, education, influence, or good works can save a person. Salvation is not achieved through human effort but through the transforming work of the Holy Spirit.
In this sermon you'll discover:
-Who Nicodemus was and why his story matters today
-What Jesus meant by "born again"
-Why salvation is by the Spirit—not by religious works
-Why John 3:5 is not teaching baptismal regeneration
-The biblical evidence of genuine saving faith
-How the gospel calls every person to trust Christ alone
No matter your background, Jesus' words remain true today: "Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." (John 3:3)
