John 3:1-8
Excerpted from: John 3:16 in Context (Part Two)Now, I am not going to go into all the details of born again and all of that. I just want to get the major principles that we pull out of here. And that is, Jesus here reveals that to understand and experience, this is the word see, He says to see the Kingdom of God, to understand and experience the Kingdom of God requires a spiritual rebirth or a regeneration. And that regeneration consists of first, God's calling, and then baptism and receipt of the Holy Spirit.
I kind of skipped over repentance there, but I hope you understand that that is part of baptism. So He mentions particularly the water and the Spirit here showing that baptism and the receipt of the Holy Spirit are intimated, they are part of the process of being born from above, we might say. And He goes on to say that one cannot see this change take place because it is a spiritual matter. It happens in a person's heart and mind.
