Nicodemus Meets Jesus
Manage episode 431292868 series 1152703
This sermon covers the passage of John 3:1-15 which features the profound encounter between Nicodemus, a Pharisee and member of the Jewish ruling council, and Jesus Christ. Nicodemus comes to Jesus at night, seeking to understand His teachings. Jesus introduces the concept of being "born again" or "born from above," explaining that spiritual rebirth is necessary to see the kingdom of God. This confounds Nicodemus, prompting further explanation from Jesus about the difference between physical and spiritual birth. Jesus emphasizes the role of the Spirit in this rebirth, which is mysterious and sovereign, like the wind. The passage culminates in Jesus alluding to His future crucifixion (lifted up) as the means for salvation, indicating that belief in Him will lead to eternal life. This conversation lays the foundation for understanding salvation, the work of the Holy Spirit, and the nature of faith in Christ.
