Sermons About John-3
Born of the Spirit
Today's gospel reading contains probably the best known verse in the Bible, John 3:16: "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life." The mystery of eternal life, what it is and how we experience it, is the most profound of all mysteries. Nicodemus, then one of the most revered teachers of the Jewish people, approached Jesus and asked him to explain. Though Nicodemus was a theologian with a significant background in the study of the Scriptures, he was unprepared for the answer that Jesus gave. The Lord's answer to him is God's answer to us when we ask as well. We don't have to be theologians to receive the greatest gift of all. We just have to have open hearts and open minds!
