From Death to Life
Nicodemus recognizes that there was something about Jesus that he needed to sit and learn more about, but he comes under the shroud of night.
As Jesus always does, he cuts to the heart of Nicodemus concerns and addresses the obstacle that stands in the way of the individual and the truth.
Every Jew believed that they were to inherit the kingdom of God for the simple fact that they were a Jew.
Their future was secure in their heritage.
Jesus cuts to the heart of this as he point Nicodemus to the only heritage that actually saves, to be born of God.
Our flesh is limited it what is can produce, it can only result in death.
Our lives are not lived with two possible outcomes dependent upon how we live.
Our lives have only one possible result, death.
The only way to have the possibility of life is to be re-birthed in Christ.
In Him, we are transformed, made into a new creation, we are birthed into the family of God.
Relational Knowledge
John 3:9-1
Nicodemus is mystified by Jesus’ response.
Jesus once again cuts to the heart of the issue.
The teachers of the law had missed the intent of the law.
The law was given to man to point us to our need for the Father.
Man built an entire faith absent of God.
God was not at the center of the faith, man was.
Jesus points Nicodemus to what God had always desired for and from man, a relationship with Him.
Since the beginning, God has pursued man with desire for an authentic relationship.
From walking in the garden with Adam, to meeting face to face with Moses in the Tent of Meeting, to now walking with man as the incarnate.
Salvation came from shifting our eyes to the Lord and the same is true for salvation today.
As our eyes shift to Jesus, we find true salvation, a restored relationship with God.
Choose Life
John 3:16-
This is the heart of the gospel and everything that Jesus has done and will do.
Jesus came and put on display what God’s love looks like.
God loves us and pursues us out of that love.
He can not to condemn us but to save us.
The life that he offers is not a life of fear and condemnation, but rather a life of joy and freedom.
It is difficult to walk in freedom.
We would rather walk in condemnation for in condemnation, we live like we deserve what we get.
This is not what God created us for.
We have been given the opportunity to walk in the light.
We can not walk in the light if we are trying to hide things in the dark.
Christ died to obliterate the darkness, to remove its hold on God’s children and to set them free.
We are free.
