?here was a Pharisee na%ed @icode%us, a leader o the 9ews# e ca%e to 9esus b4 ni'ht and saidto hi%, A/abbi, we know that 4ou are a teacher who has co%e ro% God) or no one can do these

si'ns that 4ou do apart ro% the presence o God#A 9esus answered hi%, ABer4 trul4, 0 tell 4ou, no

one can see the kin'do% o God without bein' born ro% abo6e#A @icode%us said to hi%, Aow can

an4one be born ater ha6in' 'rown old Can one enter a second ti%e into the %others wo%b and bebornA 9esus answered, ABer4 trul4, 0 tell 4ou, no one can enter the kin'do% o God without bein'

born o water and Spirit# 5hat is born o the lesh is lesh, and what is born o the Spirit is spirit# Do

not be astonished that 0 said to 4ou, ou %ust be born ro% abo6e# ?he wind blows where it

chooses, and 4ou hear the sound o it, but 4ou do not know where it co%es ro% or where it 'oes#

So it is with e6er4one who is born o the Spirit#A @icode%us said to hi%, Aow can these thin's

beA 9esus answered hi%, Are 4ou a teacher o 0srael, and 4et 4ou do not understand these thin's

ABer4 trul4, 0 tell 4ou, we speak o what we know and testi4 to what we ha6e seen) 4et 4ou do not

recei6e our testi%on4# 0 0 ha6e told 4ou about earthl4 thin's and 4ou do not belie6e, how can 4ou

belie6e i 0 tell 4ou about hea6enl4 thin's @o one has ascended into hea6en ecept the one whodescended ro% hea6en, the Son o Man# nd 7ust as Moses lited up the serpent in the wilderness,

so %ust the Son o Man be lited up, that whoe6er belie6es in hi% %a4 ha6e eternal lie#

AFor God so lo6ed the world that he 'a6e his onl4 Son, so that e6er4one who belie6es in hi% %a4

not perish but %a4 ha6e eternal lie#

A0ndeed, God did not send the Son into the world to conde%n the world, but in order that the world

%i'ht be sa6ed throu'h hi%#A
