John 3 (NKJV)
5 Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one
is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom
of God.
Getting into heaven is not based upon how good you
are.
You must be born again.
You don't earn your way into the family of God, but
you are born into it.
Just like you didn't earn your physical birth.
6 That
which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born
of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Do not marvel that I (Jesus) said
to you, ‘You must be born again.’
John 4:20 (NKJV)
Our
fathers (A Samaritan woman speaking) worshiped on this
mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the
place where one ought to worship.”
There was a religious controversy in where a person
was suppose to worship during Jesus's time.
During this day, there is a lot of controversy during
our time.
People elevate their Church above God's
Word.
They elevate tradition above God's Word.
If you are a Christian, the Head of the Church, Jesus,
tells us in His Word, the Bible, what to believe.
If the truth will set you free,what will bind
you? It is lies and errors.
If you can't find it in God's Word in multiple places
what you believe, you must change your beliefs.
Where's it in the Word?
Where's is it the Scripture?
If you can't find the Scripture, don't accept it as
truth.
There is a broad way that leads to
destruction.
That means that the majority is wrong.
Jesus said that there is one way to God, and I'm it
(John 14:6).
You either believe this or not.
Thank you God for allowing us to believe in your truth
and for saving us.
John 4:20 (NKJV)
Our
fathers (A Samaritan woman speaking) worshiped on this
mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the
place where one ought to worship.”
This woman was wanting to get into a religious
argument with Jesus.
21 Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you will
neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father.
Jesus said both groups were wrong.
22 You
worship what you do not know; we know what we worship, for salvation
is of the Jews.
23 But
the hour is coming, and now is, when...
the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and
truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.
Jesus said that something new is coming.
Jesus was introducing New Testament worship which came
from the Spirit.
In the Old Testament, people worshiped in the
flesh.
Not everyone who is worshiping is worshiping
truly.
You may be worshiping and wasting your time. We
want true worship.
It's not a geographic location.
True worship is coming and it is here, Jesus
said!
God is tired of flesh worship and won't accept it any
longer.
Now, God requires worship in the Spirit.
In the New Testament, our spirits have be born again
if we believe in Jesus.
We can yield to the Holy Spirit as we worship
Him.
There is a big difference in Old Testament worship and
New Testament worship.
Only select people were anointed by the Holy Spirit in
Old Testament for a time.
No one was born again in the Old
Testament.
Now through Jesus the gates of heaven are open
wide.
We can all be born again if we only believe in
Jesus.
24 God is Spirit,
and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
God's not making things complicated.
With God's help, you can understand this.
God, help us to practically do these things, and walk
in your Holy Spirit.
Make it plain.
It's not suppose to be a mystery. It's not
complicated.
God's a Spirit, and so are you.
You're not a mind.
You're not a body.
You are a spirit who lives in a physical
body.
It's like a hand being in a glove.
You are not your body.
Your body is the house that your spirit lives
inside.
You are created in the image and likeness of the
Almighty God.
Our spirits have a mind.
Our bodies have a brain.
Our brain is the piano that our mind
plays.
It is just an instrument.
God give us quick understanding.
We can learn anything that we need to learn. D
on't talk about how hard it is to learn.
You have the eternal God inside of you if you have
Jesus.
The Holy Spirit will teach you all things.
Don't let your words be stout again God.
Say I can do all thing through Christ who strengthens
me.
I can learn all things.
Let your words work for you instead of against
you.
Your brain is not your mind.
We're talking about spirit and flesh.
Anything that came through your spirit is from
God.
John 3:16 (NKJV)
16 For
God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, Jesus, that
whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
Keith Moore, Faith Life Church, 26
