Born Again?
A young man with many failures threw up his hands in resignation, "Well I guess I was just born wrong."
He was much nearer the truth than he realized.
the late Billy Graham
"The Bible plainly teaches that all of us - rich, poor, high, low, kings or commoners - were born wrong.
"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, - Romans 3:23.
"When Nicodemus came to Jesus one night, he in effect represented the whole of the human race. The question of eternal life.
"Jesus gave Nicodemus a concise answer: 'Most assuredly, I say, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God, - John 3:3.'
"Jesus did not attempt a logical explanation of the full meaning. He knew that our finite minds cannot grasp the meaning of spiritual things.
'If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things? - John 3:12. "Here Jesus implied that spiritual things can only be known through experience."
