Our Evana Network Regional Pastor Don Patterson preached the context of John 3:16

Many focus on the two most famous passages from this section of cripture; John 3:3 (born again) and John 3:16 (for GOd so loved the world) We are going to linger with Nicodemus, his searching out Jesus in the dark of night, his probing questions "How can these things be?"

Early in his ministry, Jesus is questioned about the Kingdom of Heaven by one of the Pharisees, Nicodemus. In response to his questions he explains how no one can enter the Kingdom without being born again. But what does that mean? Graham unpacks this foundational concept.

The Pharisees were a group of religious leaders that held the people in bondage. Jesus came an disrupted their entire religious system. Late one night, a Pharisee named Nicodemus met with Jesus.

How well do you understand what it means to be born again, and how well can you communicate it to those you encounter?

Jesus has his own schedule in everything. He is good and kind and trustworthy and faithful. And He does whatever He pleases. He really does care for us, even in the seemingly small things. We may bring our request to Him at any time. Mary's final words are continually apropos, 'Whatever He says to you, do it!'. They are wise who abide in His Word. Jesus assures Nicodemus that the prophecies of Ezekiel are true and that God will give new Birth, a Birth that is from above, a Birth through His Spirit. A supernatural birth. Jesus is ready and able to rescue any who come to Him... alas, too many abide in condemnation, in wrath, for they love darkness and will not come into the light. Dear friend, if you haven't yet, please come into the light that you might have everlasting life in Him, life in He who is True Light. He has so loved the world.
