The New Birth John 8: 1-11, 18, 17, Golden Text. --Except 4 man be born again, he cannot see the King- dom cf God.--John 3: 3, Nicodemus Seeks 'Light It has- been inferred that Nico- demys, from the use of the plural "we" know," hedrin. Jesus laid bare to Nicodemus the 'came to Jesus as a, representative of others in -the San- @ fundamental fact' in" trae religion: "Except a man be born again, he | 'cannot see the kingdom. of God." « Bom of the Spirit Nicodemus was startled and, in his question, blundered toward the truth over a physical impossibility: "How can a man be born when he - is old?' In reply Jesus. unveiled the nature: of the new birth: "Except a man be born of water and of the spirit, he cannot enter into the ¢kingdom of God." Whatever 'may be the reference to "water" here, the teaching of the passage is that the new birth is spiritual," "That which is-born of the spirit is spire it." And .why should there be mar- vel at this? The whispering winds of that April night illustrated it: they were invisible to the human eye and' impossible of construction 'by. human force, and yet by their . effects they were- clearly perteiv- able. "So is every-one that is born of the spirit." Method of New Birth In some measure -- Nicodemus < His Son now understood what was necess sary, but the method of attaining unto it was still incomprehensible to him, "How ca these things be?" The reply of Jesus opens with & mild' reproach: "Art thou the - teacher of Israel, and Indetstand- est not these things?" Acq } Rance with . the Old Testament. should have taught him that the new heart is necessary to -the new life. Jesas 'adds that his teaching is that of personal knowledge al- though the nation as represented by Nicodemus receives it not. ~ Love from the Father "If "the -' question were asked, "which .is the' choicest verse in the Bible?" without doubt nearly every- one would answer, "John 8: 16." . No single verse has been used to the winning of éo many souls, for no single verse expresses so much in so few understandable words, God's gift of His' only-begotten Son was the ultimate expression - . of love, not for angels, seraphim or saints, but for sinners. No more precious words are to be found in all the pages of Holy Scripture, . Yet the love of God and the gift of His Son and the promise of eternal life are efficacious only. to those who beliéve on Him as their Saviour and Lord. Justice of God The gospel of the justice of God niust not be overlooked. God sent into the world not to destroy it through «justice but, to save it through love. r Antarctic Regions Named for Women: Women have never set foot on vast Antarctica, says Rear Admiral Richard.
