Gospel of John_Chapter 3

There was a Pharisee named Nicodemus, who was a Jewish official.

This man came to Jesus at night and said, Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher from God. For the miracles you do, without God with you, no one can do them.

Jesus replied, “Truly, I tell you the truth, unless a person is reborn, they cannot see the kingdom of God.”.

Nicodemus said, “How can a person be reborn when they are old?”? How can it be born again in the mother’s womb?

Jesus said, Truly, I tell you the truth, if a man is not born of water and the Holy Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

Born from the flesh, it is the flesh. What comes from the spirit is the spirit.

I said, you must be reborn, don’t think it’s strange.

The wind blows with its will, you hear the sound of the wind, but you don’t know where it comes from or where it goes. And so it is with anyone born from the Holy Spirit.

Nicodemus asked him, “How could this be?”?

Jesus replied, “You are a teacher of the Israelites, do you not yet understand this matter?”?

I truly tell you, what we say is what we know, what we witness is what we have seen. But you do not receive our witness.

If I speak to you about things on earth, yet you do not believe them, how can you believe them if I speak about things in heaven?

Except for the Son of Man who descended from heaven and remained in heaven, no one has ascended to heaven.

As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so shall the Son of Man be lifted up.

Let all who believe in him have eternal life. (Or that all believers may have eternal life in him)

God loves the world to the extent that he gives his only begotten son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish, but will have eternal life.

For God sent his son to the world not to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

Those who trust him will not be convicted. Those who do not believe have already been condemned, because they do not believe in the name of God’s only son.

The light has come into the world, and people, because their actions are evil, love darkness instead of light. This is where they are condemned.

Anyone who does evil hates the light and does not come to the light, fearing that their actions will be rebuked.

But those who walk the truth will come to light, and they will make it clear that they walk in God.

After this, Jesus and his disciples went to the land of Judea, where they lived and baptized.

John also baptized in Elnon near Salem, because there was plenty of water there. Everyone went to be baptized.

At that time, John was not yet imprisoned.

John’s disciples argued with a Jewish man about the ritual of purification.

He came to John and said, Rabbi, the one you witnessed who was with you outside the Jordan is now baptizing, and everyone is going to him.

John said, If it were not given from heaven, a man cannot receive anything.

I once said, I am not Christ, but sent before him. You yourselves can bear witness to me.

He who marries a bride is the groom. The groom’s friends were overjoyed when they heard his voice while standing. Therefore, my joy is satisfied.

He will prosper, I will decline.

What comes from heaven is above all things. What comes up from the earth belongs to the earth, and what he says also belongs to the earth. He comes from heaven and is above all things.

He witnessed what he saw and heard, but no one received his testimony.

And those who receive his testimony shall seal it to prove that God is true.

He who is sent by God speaks the word of God. Because God has given the Holy Spirit to him, there is no limit.

The father loves his son and has entrusted everything to him.

Those who believe in the Son have eternal life. Those who do not believe in the Son do not receive eternal life, and the wrath of God is always upon them.
