kjv John:3:1-21 SEEK
Seeker Overlay ON
*
There was a man of the Pharisees ,
named Nicodemus ,
a ruler of the Jews :
*
The same came to Jesus by night ,
and said unto him ,
Rabbi ,
we know that thou art a teacher come from God :
for no man can do these miracles that thou doest ,
except God be with him .
*
Jesus answered and said unto him ,
Verily ,
verily ,
I say unto thee ,
Except a man be born again ,
he cannot see the kingdom of God .
*
Nicodemus saith unto him ,
How can a man be born when he is old ?
can he enter the second time into his mother '
s womb ,
and be born ?
*
Jesus answered ,
Verily ,
verily ,
I say unto thee ,
Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit ,
he cannot enter into the kingdom of God .
*
That which is born of the flesh is flesh ;
and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit .
*
Marvel not that I said unto thee ,
Ye must be born again .
*
The wind bloweth where it listeth ,
and thou hearest the sound thereof ,
but canst not tell whence it cometh ,
and whither it goeth :
so is every one that is born of the Spirit .
*
Nicodemus answered and said unto him ,
How can these things be ?
*
Jesus answered and said unto him ,
Art thou a master of Israel ,
and knowest not these things ?
*
Verily ,
verily ,
I say unto thee ,
We speak that we do know ,
and testify that we have seen ;
and ye receive not our witness .
*
If I have told you earthly things ,
and ye believe not ,
how shall ye believe ,
if I tell you of heavenly things ?
*
And no man hath ascended up to heaven ,
but he that came down from heaven ,
even the Son of man which is in heaven .
*
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness ,
even so must the Son of man be lifted up :
*
That whosoever believeth in him should not perish ,
but have eternal life .
*
For God so loved the world ,
that he gave his only begotten Son ,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish ,
but have everlasting life .
*
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world ;
but that the world through him might be saved .
*
He that believeth on him is not condemned :
but he that believeth not is condemned already ,
because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God .
*
And this is the condemnation ,
that light is come into the world ,
and men loved darkness rather than light ,
because their deeds were evil .
*
For every one that doeth evil hateth the light ,
neither cometh to the light ,
lest his deeds should be reproved .
*
But he that doeth truth cometh to the light ,
that his deeds may be made manifest ,
that they are wrought in God .
