Life in the Spirit, Part 7

Picture of God #88, Tues 2/20/1

The Holy Bible, New International Version

5John 3:5 Jesus answered, "I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. 6Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. 7You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’

Think what you will of my little meditations, or pictures of God, or whatever you call them.

But here Jesus makes it quite plain...the one and only way to enter the Kingdom of God is by being born anew of the Spirit.

The first birth, of flesh, results in an utterly fleshly creature.  

The Second Birth results in an utterly Spiritual creature.

And the GLORY, (historically, one of the genuinely unique contributions Christianity made to the World's Religions) is the AMAZING NOTION that having a body (flesh) DOES NOT negate (or make impossible) a life FULLY DEDICATED TO THE Spirit.

A lot to think about there.

We shall leave that exercise to the reader.

I love you all, those who faithfully read these offerings, and give me your feedback.......they inspire me.
