Nicodemus with Christ
John 3:1-7
There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus,
a ruler of the Jews: the same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him,
Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do
these miracles that thou doest except God be with him. Jesus answered and
said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again,
he cannot see the kindgom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man
be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's
womb and be born? 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. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must
be born again. (KJV)
