Flesh & Spirit

John 3:5-6 - Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

In two verses the Lord Jesus Christ specifically identifies the difference between the physical birth of everyone and the Supernatural Spiritual Birth necessary to become a Saint. These are clear, precise, and definitive words. Jesus was adamant in telling and explaining about the two births.

Notice closely Jesus connects water and flesh together from one birth. Then the birth of the Spirit being different. Jesus explicitly notes these are two different births. One is of flesh/physical. The other of Spirit.

Have you ever been Born Again? What is your own proof? Proof that you know what Being Born again is. Proof that you know how to be Born Again. Proof that you HAVE been born again. Not proving anything to anyone else. Only to God and yourself.

Just as we have proof that we have been physically born, we need to have proof that we have been Spiritually Born Again. A new creation by God. Possessing the Life of God. Experiencing God’s Grace through our earthsuit is the most telling of all proof.
