FLESH AND SPIRIT BIRTHS

In every life there are powerful moments that can transform our minds, emotions, and wills, but they do not meet our greatest need. The greatest, most powerful moment in a life comes when a person believes in God.

John 3:3,6 . . . Varily, varily I say unto thee. Except a man be born again he cannot see the kingdom of God. . . . That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

Born in the flesh, we receive a genetic code, a measure of talents and abilities, and the Adam factor -- an earthly, fleshly, sinful nature.

But spiritual birth is a powerful life-changing moment, bringing with it a new standing in Christ -- a spiritual nature and forgiveness of sin with peace and assurance that we are a child of God, forever secure in His hands!

If you have not been born again, ask Jesus to come into your heart as your Lord and Savior. Being born again is not just saying the words, but believing what you say from the bottom of your heart -- surrenduring your life to Jesus.
