You Must Be Born Again | Bro. Glenn Graham | Sunday Morning Sermons | February 13, 2022
The new birth is not just living out new ideals. It is not just turning over a new leaf. It is the inception of a new life. It is a miracle, it is radical, revolutionary, and lasting. It is making sheep out of goats. There is a new creation with a new heart. A lot of people think they are going to heaven just because they went down front, got baptized, go to church, etc. In John 8:31-34 they thought they were going to heaven simply because they are Jews, the Pharisees because they were most religious. However, if you are a Christian, your conduct would show it. 1 John 5 – Jesus says keep My commandments. John 8:44-51, you do the desires of your father. Romans 6-8 say it plainly, you are either a slave of sin or a slave of righteousness. In John 19:39, Nicodemus, a teacher of Israel, sought out Jesus in secret. He acknowledged that Jesus was from God with God’s authority, but he was not believing unto salvation. Jesus said it plainly, (John 3:3-6) UNLESS one is born again, UNLESS one is born of water and the Spirit, YOU MUST be born again. The new birth is not produced by man. It does not originate with man. It is not initiated by man. John 1:12-13 God causes us to be born again. James 1:18, “in the exercise of His will, He brought us forth.” 2 Corinthians 5:9 – if you are in Christ, you have been born again, a distinct creature from who you were. Ephesians 2:4-7 – salvation is a work of God. 1 Peter 1:3 – according to His great mercy, He has caused us to be born again. An emotional response is not the rebirth. How can you be delivered from bondage of sin and then continue in it? You can’t! God does not leave us in our ungodly sinful lifestyles. God says clearly in 1 Corinthians 6:9-11. Being born again does not mean we lose our capacity to sin; it does mean we have gained the capacity to love Christ, obey Him, and overcome sin. Jesus said you must be born again.
Main Passages Discussed: John 3:1-10, Ephesians 2:4-7, 1 Corinthians 6:9-11
