The Gospel of John - John 3.1-15

Jobey McGinty

"You must be born again." There may not be five more important words in the English language. In this sermon, Jesus speaks to one of the most moral, religious, and seemingly passionate followers of God's Law, but even Jesus says to him, "so what? Unless you're born again, it's pointless."  What does it mean to be born again, and why is it necessary? Isn't being a good, moral person and believing in God enough to be accepted by God and go to heaven? According to Jesus, it isn't even close. Rather, we must have faith in the only one who can bring a solution to our problem of sin.
