Description

This sermon on John 3:1–21 explores Nicodemus’s encounter with Jesus, highlighting the necessity of spiritual rebirth. Though Nicodemus was a respected Pharisee and leader, his religion and good works could not secure entrance into God’s kingdom. Jesus cut through his questions by declaring, “You must be born from above,” teaching that all people are spiritually dead in sin and need new life only God can give. Being born again means a complete spiritual transformation, not moral improvement. Like the wind, the Spirit’s work is unseen but powerful and undeniable. Salvation comes not through heritage, religion, or goodness, but through faith in Jesus, the One lifted up on the cross. Eternal life belongs only to those who trust Him.
