What does it mean to be "born again"? Jesus told the most religious man in all of Israel — a Pharisee, a member of the Sanhedrin, a man of wealth, power, and Scripture — that he still wasn't good enough to enter the kingdom of God. In this episode, we unpack John 3:1–8 and the conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus to answer the question that heaven and hell hang on.

If being religious, knowing the Bible, and obeying God's Word can't get you into heaven — what can? We explore what being "born again" (or born from above) actually means, why regeneration is a miracle of God and not a decision you make, and why this is the dividing line between those who enter glory and those who don't.
