Nicodemus was respected, moral, educated, and deeply religious.

Yet Jesus told him:

“You must be born again.”

In this exposition of John 3:1–8, we examine one of the most important conversations in all of Scripture. Jesus confronts Nicodemus with the reality that external religion, knowledge, status, and works cannot bring anyone into the Kingdom of God.

This sermon explores:

• The difference between true faith and superficial belief
• Why Jesus distrusted sign-based faith
• The meaning of the new birth
• The spiritual nature of God’s Kingdom
• Why flesh cannot produce spiritual life
• The sovereign work of the Holy Spirit in salvation
