Jesus and Nicodemus

3There was a man from the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.G1161G2258G444G1537G5330G3686G846G3530G758G2453
2This man came to Him at night and said, "Rabbi, we know that You have come from God as a teacher, for no one could perform these signs You do unless God were with him."G3778G2064G4314G2424G3571G2532G2036G846G4461G1492G3754G2064G1320G2064G575G2316G1063G3762G1410G4160G5023G4592G3739G4771G4160G3362G2316G5600G3326G846
3Jesus replied, "I assure you: Unless someone is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."G2424G611G2532G2036G846G281G281G3004G4671G3362G5100G1080G509G1410G3756G1492G932G2316
4"But how can anyone be born when he is old?" Nicodemus asked Him. "Can he enter his mother's womb a second time and be born?"G3530G3004G4314G846G4459G1410G444G1080G5607G1088G3361G1410G1525G1208G1519G846G3384G2836G2532G1080
5Jesus answered, "I assure you: Unless someone is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.G2424G611G281G281G3004G4671G3362G5100G1080G1537G5204G2532G4151G3756G1410G1525G1519G932G2316
6Whatever is born of the flesh is flesh, and whatever is born of the Spirit is spirit.G1080G1537G4561G2076G4561G2532G1080G1537G4151G2076G4151
7Do not be amazed that I told you that you must be born again.G2296G3361G3754G2036G4671G5209G1163G1080G509
8The wind blows where it pleases, and you hear its sound, but you don't know where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit."G4151G4154G3699G2309G2532G191G5456G846G235G1492G3756G1492G4159G2064G2532G4226G5217G3779G2076G3956G1080G1537G4151
9"How can these things be?" asked Nicodemus.G3530G611G2532G2036G846G4459G1410G5023G1096
10"Are you a teacher of Israel and don't know these things?" Jesus replied.G2424G611G2532G2036G846G1488G4771G1320G2474G2532G1097G3756G5023
11"I assure you: We speak what We know and We testify to what We have seen, but you do not accept Our testimony.G281G281G3004G4671G2980G3754G3739G1492G2532G3140G3739G3708G2532G2983G3756G2257G3141
12If I have told you about things that happen on earth and you don't believe, how will you believe if I tell you about things of heaven?G1487G2036G5213G1919G2532G4100G3756G4459G4100G1437G2036G5213G2032
13No one has ascended into heaven except the One who descended from heaven— the Son of Man.G2532G3762G305G1519G3772G1508G2597G1537G3772G5207G444G3588G5607G1722G3772
14Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up,G2532G2531G3475G5312G3789G1722G2048G3779G1163G5207G444G5312
15so that everyone who believes in Him will have eternal life.G3363G3956G4100G1519G846G622G3363G622G235G2192G166G2222
16"For God loved the world in this way: He gave His One and Only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life.G1063G2316G3779G25G2889G5620G1325G846G3439G5207G2443G3956G4100G1519G846G622G3361G622G235G2192G166G2222
17For God did not send His Son into the world that He might judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him.G1063G2316G649G3756G846G5207G1519G2889G2443G2919G2889G235G2443G2889G1223G846G4982
18Anyone who believes in Him is not judged, but anyone who does not believe is already judged, because he has not believed in the name of the One and Only Son of God.G4100G1519G846G2919G3756G2919G1161G4100G3361G2919G2235G3754G4100G3361G4100G1519G3686G3439G5207G2316
19"This, then, is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved darkness rather than the light because their deeds were evil.G1161G3778G2076G2920G3754G5457G2064G1519G2889G2532G444G25G4655G3123G2228G5457G1063G846G2041G2258G4190
20For everyone who practices wicked things hates the light and avoids it, so that his deeds may not be exposed.G1063G3956G4238G5337G3404G5457G2532G3756G2064G4314G5457G3363G846G2041G1651
21But anyone who lives by the truth comes to the light, so that his works may be shown to be accomplished by God."G1161G4160G225G2064G4314G5457G2443G846G2041G5319G3754G2076G2038G1722G2316

Jesus and John the Baptist

22After this, Jesus and His disciples went to the Judean countryside, where He spent time with them and baptized.G3326G5023G2064G2424G2532G846G3101G1519G1093G2449G2532G1563G1304G3326G846G2532G907
23John also was baptizing in Aenon near Salim, because there was plenty of water there. People were coming and being baptized,G1161G2491G2532G2258G907G1722G137G1451G4530G3754G2258G4183G5204G1563G2532G3854G2532G907
24since John had not yet been thrown into prison.G1063G2491G2258G3768G906G1519G5438
25Then a dispute arose between John's disciples and a Jew about purification.G3767G1096G2214G3326G1537G2491G3101G2453G4012G2512
26So they came to John and told him, "Rabbi, the One you testified about, and who was with you across the Jordan, is baptizing— and everyone is flocking to Him."G2532G2064G4314G2491G2532G2036G846G4461G3739G2258G3326G4675G4008G2446G3739G4771G3140G2396G3778G907G2532G3956G2064G4314G846
27John responded, "No one can receive a single thing unless it's given to him from heaven.G2491G611G2532G2036G444G1410G3756G2983G3762G3362G5600G1325G846G1537G3772
28You yourselves can testify that I said, 'I am not the Messiah, but I've been sent ahead of Him.'G5210G846G3140G3427G3140G3754G2036G1473G1510G3756G5547G235G3754G1510G649G1715G1565
29He who has the bride is the groom. But the groom's friend, who stands by and listens for him, rejoices greatly at the groom's voice. So this joy of mine is complete.G2192G3565G2076G3566G1161G5384G3566G3588G2476G2532G191G846G5463G5479G1223G3566G5456G3778G1699G5479G3767G4137
30He must increase, but I must decrease."G1565G1163G837G1161G1691G1642

The One from Heaven

31The One who comes from above is above all. The one who is from the earth is earthly and speaks in earthly terms. The One who comes from heaven is above all.G2064G509G2076G1883G3956G5607G1537G1093G2076G1537G1093G2532G2980G1537G1093G2064G1537G3772G2076G1883G3956
32He testifies to what He has seen and heard, yet no one accepts His testimony.G2532G3739G3708G2532G191G5124G3140G2532G3762G2983G846G3141
33The one who has accepted His testimony has affirmed that God is true.G2983G846G3141G4972G3754G2316G2076G227
34For God sent Him, and He speaks God's words, since He gives the Spirit without measure.G1063G3739G2316G649G2980G4487G2316G1063G2316G1325G3756G4151G1537G3358
35The Father loves the Son and has given all things into His hands.G3962G25G5207G2532G1325G3956G1722G846G5495
36The one who believes in the Son has eternal life, but the one who refuses to believe in the Son will not see life; instead, the wrath of God remains on him.G4100G1519G5207G2192G166G2222G1161G544G5207G3700G3756G3700G2222G235G3709G2316G3306G1909G846
