    alex1939...Michelle good Question... John 3 :16 God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth on him will not perish but have eternal life.

    .....1 st Peter 1:23...Being Born again of an INCORRUPTIBLE SEED even by the WORDS of God that liveth and abideth for ever.

    ......Nicodemus was teaching that the works of the law wd bring righteousness....But Jesus was teaching that we wd needed to birth a New Heart and a New Spirit...A new innerman...Mankind needs someone Heavenly to guide him...Christ in us..The H.G.

    .....Which is the Child of Promise...The woman in Rev. 12:10 is giving birth to the Child of the Kingdom...Now is come salvation and the Kingdom of our God and the power of his Christ...Remember smite the shepard then i will turn my hand to the little ones...The babes and sucklings that are able to praise God with a perfect praise...Our new hearts and new spirits...

    .....What Jesus did at Calvary by the shedding of his blood is gonna result in a New Covenant...And a Kingdom is in this Child.

    .....Unless you receive the Kingdom of God as a lil Child you will in no wise enter there in...Which is the result of the heavenly Birth... Isaiah 60:22 kjv...A lil one is gona become a 1000 and a small one a strong nation...I THE LORD WILL HASTEN IT IN ITS TIME...Which is that which is born of the spirit the H.G...An Israel of God...Which is Christ/the H.G. born in us.

    .....Thats y he always refers to himself as the son of man....Mankind is gonna have a spritual baby which is the H.G...That HEAVENLY BIRTH...Thats y Hebrews 11:1 describes faith as a spritual pregnancy...The substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen.. is a beautiful picture of a spiritual pregnancy the Child is the H.G...the gift of God...By the seed of the bridegroom...ok lemme go...

    Michelle,

    John 3:13 is part of a chapter outline that begins at Verse 1 and goes to Verse 15, and it is the presentation of the Spiritual birth from heaven.

    In John 3:13, Jesus is telling Nicodemus that that He was the only One that has come down from heaven. He said, but if I tell you earthly things and you don't get it, and you are the master teacher?

    He should have associated the Lord's teaching to Ezekiel Chapter 37 Verses 1 through 15.



    This is where God takes the prophet and He shows them a valley of dead bones and says this is Israel. Spiritually dead! And He says to him, prophecy over these bones that flesh would come on them. And the bones came together and the flesh came on the bones.



    And then He says prophecy to the wind that the wind would blow on them and breathe life in them. And he prophesies and the wind blows and they are filled with life and spirit.



    And so God's promise to His people Israel is that you are spiritually dead until my spirit gives you life. But right now you are spiritually dead!



    And He tells Nicodemus, you should have known what I was talking about. How can you be the master teacher in Israel and you don't know anything about being born from above? You don't know anything about the wind blowing, and how the spirit moves!
