1. There was a Pharisee named Nicodemus. He was one of the Jewish rulers.
2. He came to Jesus at night and said, "Rabbi, we know you are a teacher who has come from God. We know that God is with you. If he weren't, you couldn't do the miraculous signs you are doing."
3. Jesus replied, "What I'm about to tell you is true. No one can see God's kingdom without being born again."
4. "How can I be born when I am old?" Nicodemus asked. "I can't go back inside my mother! I can't be born a second time!"
5. Jesus answered, "What I'm about to tell you is true. No one can enter God's kingdom without being born through water and the Holy Spirit.
6. People give birth to people. But the Spirit gives birth to spirit.
