Born Again on SermonAudio

This sermon explores the context and significance of John 3:16 through the encounter between Jesus and Nicodemus, highlighting that religious observance alone is insufficient for salvation. The message emphasizes the necessity of being born again and looking to Christ, who was lifted up on the cross to bear the judgment of sin, as the sole means of deliverance. It presents the gospel as a summary of God's love, which gives His Son, saves through faith, and keeps believers in eternal life. The preacher urges the audience to examine their own spiritual condition, moving beyond mere ritual to a personal trust in Jesus Christ for the assurance of everlasting life.

It all starts when Jesus said to Nicodemus you must be born again

In Matthew 13:1-23 the tells a parable of the Sower & the Seed one way to the lost unsaved person & then repeats it a different way to the saved born again disciples.

(Sunday Service) 1 Peter 1:3-5: "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, who by God's power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time."

The Christian life is a life of spiritual transformation. Therefore, at CBC, we believe and teach that when a person is born again, they continue to be transformed to be more like Christ. Those who have been born again can be assured that they have eternal life. In this sermon, Pastor Jess Miller examines John 3 and how a person must be born again, then looks at several passages in 1 John, where we see three results of the new birth that will be evident in a believer's life.
