Good morning. For not even the Father judges anyone, but He
has given all judgement to the Son. That’s a pretty scary statement for all
those who have been hostile to Jesus. So that all will honor the Son even as
they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father
who sent Him. How would we feel if we owned a business, and sent our child to
negotiate with someone from another company, and they disrespected our child?
It would be just like they disrespected us to our face. He who hears My word
and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life and does not come into judgment,
but has passed out of death into life. Now that is awesome! Of course that does
not mean that we won’t die physically. An hour is coming and now is, when the
dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live. The
phrase “now is“ does not sound like it was going to be 2000 years later, but
rather in the near future from when He said it. It sounds like some will hear
it and some will not. That would seem to fit in with the doctrine of the
Rapture which says that the dead in Christ will rise, and then the great
tribulation will begin; but that would be 2000 years after Jesus said it.
Father thank You that we have believed You and have passed out of death into
life! Go with the reader and help him/her to always have safe travel.
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 ...
