Good morning. And this is
the message we have heard from Him and announced to you, that God is light, and
in Him there is no darkness at all. Of course we heard this message in the
Gospel of John about Jesus being the light of the world. "In Him was life,
and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and
the darkness did not comprehend it." Those who do evil deeds do not want
the light because the light reveals their wickedness. If we say that we have
fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice
the truth. There are a lot of people sitting in churches that are that way. As
far as religion goes – a little dab will do you. But if we walk in the light as
He Himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood
of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. That is a powerful statement. It's
not just that we have forgiveness; His blood cleanses us from every sin. If we
say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not in
us. That's what those church sitters say to themselves. Some religions demand
penance for forgiveness. You cannot beat the evil out of yourself – nor out of
your children. We don't have to worry that He might not forgive us this time.
That is because He is faithful. And we don't just get forgiveness; He will
cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make
Him a liar, and His word is not in us. Father thank You that the reader always
walks in Your forgiveness. He/she walks in Your light and there is no darkness
in him/her at all!
Unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God
Good morning. While Jesus was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name, observing His signs which He was doing. Jesus was not entrusting Himself to them, for He knew all men. Now there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. It doesn’t say, but I assume it is still during this time of the Passover. This man came to Jesus by night. Rabbi, we know that You have come from God as a teacher; for no one can do the signs that You do unless God is with him. It just said that the people believed in His name because of the signs He was doing; yet it does not say what those signs were. Unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God. That is why unbelievers cannot tell what is of the kingdom of God and what is not – they’re not born again. Nicodemus doesn’t have a clue. How can a man be born when he is old? He cannot enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born, can he? Unless one is born of water and the Spirit ...
