Jesus taught, “Most
assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot
enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that
which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You
must be born again.’” [1]
There is a naturalization process to enter God’s
Kingdom. We must believe in the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ, who became an
atoning sacrifice for us. Only Jesus gives the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is
the One who births people anew so that we have a new heart and spirit to honor
God.
“Those who live according to the flesh set their
minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit,
the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death, but to be
spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against
God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. So then, those
who are in the flesh cannot please God. But you are not in the flesh but
in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does
not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His.” [2]
“Dear Heavenly Father, during these perilous days
of evil reports, thank You for the Good News that our Redeemer lives. Thank You
for the gift of the transforming Holy Spirit. Thank You for spiritual rebirth
and mindedness.”
