Sarah we are getting somewhere. If you be patient and let God reveal scripture, we will SEE the FINISHED work of God!
Ok so Nicodemus did not understand even thogh HE KNEW GOD WILL REPLACE THE SINNING HEART WITH THE HOLY ONE... That is the SOUL of the person that would be made holy... Ezekiel prophecied that and Nicodemus KNEW this. That is why Jesus was upset that Nico did not understand... He teach this, but HE BELIEVES THIS NOT. If you do not believe, you do not know.... You just TALK!
So while Jesus talked to Nicodemus, Jesus knew what God will accomplish AFTER God gave REBIRTH to a person. That person will be EXACTLY like Jesus. Jesus knew this! Jesus knew HE IS LIKE THE WIND, and all who are born again will be EXACTLY LIKE HIM. You see EVERY person that went THROUGH HIM WENT INTO GOD'S HOLINESS.... John 3.
Sarah, Herosefromthe dead, here is the mystery you still have to know..... Every one that pass through the NARROW GATE... Jesus Christ is the narrow gate, pass from sin to holiness (perfect holiness). On the one side of the gate is sin and repentance and Holy Spirit teaching, and Holy Spirit leading. On the other side is: God and God's will and God's holiness, the Perfection God has in store for every one that ENTERS INTO HIS KINGDOM.
Every person that goes THROUGH CHRIST, is absolutely CLEAN! HOLY AND WITHOUT SPOT OR WRINKLE... and they ARE KEPT in this PERFECT STATE, by the SPIRIT OF GOD IN THEM. They NEVER had the Spirit of God in them, before they ENTERED INTO GOD THROUGH CHRIST....
The Born of GOD, the Baptism of Holy Spirit, the FILLING of Holy Spirit, The ENTER into the narrow Gate, the THROUGH JESUS CHRIST, ALL this is that moment God gives you a NEW HEART AND A NEW SPIRIT... AT THE END OF THE STONY HEART... The END OF REPENTANCE, THE END OF ENDURE TO THE END OF THE OLD MAN. THE END OF SIN IN YOU AND YOU IN SIN...
True! The sheep does go out again, but they REMAIN HIS SHEEP AND HIM THE SHEPARD. They do not get Satan back as herder. They are God's and NOT PART OF THIS WORLD. They DIED to the World and the World to them. And the NEW LIFE please ONLY GOD! After this BAPTISM of Holy Spirit, there is no more dirt... IT TOUCHETH THEM NOT... 1 John5:18.
We keep going back to the PAST, and the when I were still a sinner.... God knows to DELIVER me from temptation... If i do not even get tempted as a SAVED SHEEP, how can I sin? God says, if I am born f Hom I sinnith not, and I cannot sin because I am BORN OF GOD... To be born of God (God's SEED) is to produce only ONE TYPE OF FRUIT.... GOOD ONES.
A tree of GOD CANNOT produce bad fruit. And a tree of bad fruit, cannot produe good fruit... God's TREES with HIS SEED CANNOT produce bad fruit..... not may not, CANNOT! Jesus says if HE makes me free from sin I am TRULY free, and you imply that is not true... Well I believe Jesus, and I make NO excuse for my sin, I need HIS SALVATION, I AM NOT YET SAVED! I AM NOT REBORN OF GOD! ANd I DO NOT HAVE THE HOLY SPIRIT IN ME....
This I can witness..... God did CALL ME, I DID HEAR HIM, I am being cleansed as HE IS CLEAN, and I am led by the Holy Spirit.... LEAD as in HE LEADS ME OUT OF SIN! He leads me in SCRIPTURE to SEE what FEW peple see. And He MULTIPLY TRUTH IN ME.... HE GIVES ME TRUTH AND I AM GETTING TO KNOW IT, and Jesus said... THOU SHALL KNOW TRUTH, AND THE TRUTH SHALL MAKE THEE FREE... I know WAY more than I used too. THIS IS SHARE AS THE HOLY SPIRIT LEADS. Up to you to believe or not, to accept or not.
All I know is God is me teacher, and I am learning! But one verse is BURNT into my heart.... 1 John 3:9... Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
No matter how hard I try to forsake this verse, God shows me TRUE PERFECTION IN HIS SON..... This we know... And hereby we know we do know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments. He that saith: I know Him, and keepeth not His commandments, is a liar and the truth is not in him....
