the Holy Spirit: born of the Spirit

 the Holy Spirit: born of the Spirit by ric gustafson


In John 3, Jesus was having a conversation with a Pharisee. It took place at night. His name was Nicodemus. Jesus told him he cannot see the kingdom of God unless he was born again. Nicodemus was a smart and bright man. He was a respected scholar.
But Nicodemus was lost. Born again?. Born of the Spirit?. According to Jesus, everyone has two birthdays. The first is for time. The second birthday is to be born again. Jesus told Nicodemus that the wind blows where it wishes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit. Unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.  The Holy Spirit loves us more than anything else.
