You Must Be Born Again
John
3:3-7
3 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.
4 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?
5 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.
6 That
which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is
spirit.
7 Marvel
not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

Peter 1:22-23
22 Seeing ye have purified
your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the
brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently.
23 Being born again, not
of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the Word of God, which liveth and
abideth forever.
Corruptible
seed is in reference to being impregnated by a human man in the natural.
Incorruptible
seed refers to being spiritually impregnated with the seed of the Word of God
planted in your heart.
Once
impregnated, that seed will continue to grow.
The
spiritual baby begins to grow and gain weight until they are finally at the
stage of being ready to be birthed.
This
speaks of giving birth to spiritual things, giving birth to dreams in your
heart, giving birth to spiritual offspring.
To
be saved and born again, and make it into Heaven one day, a person must be born
again, or else they cannot see the kingdom of God.
John
3:16 says, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that
whosoever believes on Him shall not perish but have everlasting life. For God
did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world
through Him would be saved.”
To
become born again and get saved, it all begins with believing on Jesus. Then
you receive Him into your heart as your Lord and Savior.
He
will wash away your sins as far as the east is from the west, never to be
remembered ever again.
As
kids, we used to sing:
Come
into my heart
Come
into my heart
Come
into my heart Lord Jesus
Come
in today
Come
in to stay
Come
into my heart Lord Jesus.
To
be saved, and have eternal life through Jesus Christ, you have to make Him the
Lord of your life, and acknowledge His Lordship and Kingship.
Come
to the Cross today and become redeemed by the Blood of the Lamb. Only those who
are saved and born again, can make it into heaven.
I
urge you to give your life to Christ today. Invite Him to come into your heart
today, and make Him Lord over your life.
Allow
Jesus to be the Lord of all the kingdoms of your heart, withholding nothing
from Him. Don’t make people, money or anything else idols. Worship Christ only.
Become
a follower of Christ and keep His commands and worship the Father in spirit and
in truth.
Lay
your heavy burdens at the altar. Come today and be washed by the Blood of the
Lamb.
“Come
now, let us reason together, thus saith the Lord. Though your sins be as
scarlet, they shall be as white as snow. Though they be red like crimson, they
shall be as wool.”
Are
you washed in the Blood, in the soul cleansing Blood of the Lamb?
Are
your garments spotless, are they white as snow, are you washed in the Blood of
the Lamb?
Today
is the day of salvation. You are not promised tomorrow in this world. Come
today to the Cross and give your heart and life to the Lord. Let Him wash away
your sins, and make you as white as snow.
He
will give you a bright white robe of righteousness which has no stains or
wrinkles or any such thing.
You
are loved by God and accepted into the Beloved (Body of Christ of Believers).
If
you prayed a salvation prayer, you are now born again. You are a brand new
creature in Christ Jesus. The old has gone and the new has come.
Just
like the butterfly transforms from a caterpillar to a beautiful butterfly, so
it is with becoming born again. You become a whole new person.
Your
sins are forgiven. Now go in peace.
