John 3:1-5 Romans 16:16… The Churches of Christ Greets You.

John 3: 1-8

 1There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:

 2The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.

John 3: 1-8

 3Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

 4Nicodemus 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?

John 3: 1-8

  5Jesus 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.

 6That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

 7Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

 8The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

John 12:42-43 (King James Version)  42Nevertheless among the chief rulers also

many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue:

 6Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless.

Come out and Come In So that He can Come In You. (Why?) Phil 3:4-   7But what things were gain to me, those I counted

loss for Christ.  8Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the

 9And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

Come out and Come In So that He can Come In You. (Why?) Galatians 1:13-17 (King James Version)  13For ye have heard of my conversation in

time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it:

 14And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.

Come out and Come In So that He can Come In You. (Why?) Galatians 1:13-17 (King James Version)  15But when it pleased God, who separated

me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace,

 16To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood
