John 3:3-6 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born? Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
We did know that the kingdom of God is the realm in which God dwell and operates and through our faith in Christ Jesus, as a children of God we are now members of God’s family and kingdom, so we also do operate in this realm. In this realm in which God operates is our identity and culture (the kind lifestyle of living). This is the ways and the will of God.
Noted the scriptures above, when Jesus said except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God, He pointed out that by becoming born again gives us Spiritual eyes opening to understand the realm in which God operates. Jesus continue to say that this kingdom has been given unto us (they that believe on Him), by born again Christ give us the ability to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God.
Luke 8:10. The Bible says the natural man cannot know or receive the things of the Spirit of God because they are spiritually discerned, 1Cor. 2:14.
When Jesus speaking to Nicodemus saying that except a man is born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God, He was saying that after we born physically a man also needs to experience spiritual birth to enabled us to experience the realities of this realm in which our God operates.
When we're dead spiritually, we will not be able to experience and to grow in the realities of the realm in which God operates (the kingdom of God). No matter how the pandemic of this world may affect us let's our confidence be strong enough that we are still in the position of God's kingdom offer.
Titus 3:4-6 (AMP) says, “But when the goodness and loving-kindness of God our Saviour to man [as man] appeared, He saved us, not because of any works of righteousness that we have done, but because of His own pity and mercy, by [the] cleansing [bath] of the new birth (regeneration) and renewing of the Holy Spirit, Which He poured out [so] richly upon us through Jesus Christ our Saviour.”
As we continue in Him the Christ Jesus we will dwell in the kingdom of heaven for eternity with the fullness of Joy and the incomparable love of God.
