HIStory: A Six Week Study of the Gospel of John

DAY 5 OF 40

“Born Again"

It would have been highly unpopular for a Pharisee to visit Jesus to ask questions. Yet Nicodemus is drawn to Jesus. He asks Jesus how a person can be saved, and Jesus tells him that he must be born again. This is a term that you may have heard Christians use when talking about an experience or the moment they made a decision to follow Jesus.

None of us can start over in life. We’ve all sinned before and we are constantly reminded by our guilt. However, Jesus is indicating that we can “start over” spiritually. It is in this covert conversation that we find the most famous verse in the entire Bible - John 3:16.

Just like you had a physical birthday, do you have a spiritual birthday? Do you have a moment in your life when you were “born again” of the Spirit? Was there a moment when you surrendered everything to Jesus and asked him to make you new? If not, consider this decision - it will change your eternity!

How does the surrounding context deepen your understanding of John 3:16?

This six-week study through the Gospel of John is not only history, but it’s also His Story.
