In his sermon "New Birth" Wesley unpacks the essential transformation that takes place when a person is spiritually reborn, emphasizing that this change is not just an improvement but a complete renewal of the heart by God's grace.

Join us as we dive into Wesley's timeless insights on salvation, faith, and the work of the Holy Spirit.

22 After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea, and there He was spending time with them and baptizing.23 And John also was baptizing in Aenon near Salim, because there was much water there; and people were coming and were being baptized—24 for John had not yet been thrown into prison.25 Therefore there arose a debate between John's disciples and a Jew about purification.26 And they came to John and said to him, "Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have borne witness, behold, He is baptizing and all are coming to Him."27 John answered and said, "A man can receive nothing unless it has been given him from heaven.28 You yourselves are my witnesses that I said, 'I am not the Christ,' but, 'I have been sent ahead of Him.'29 He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. So this joy of mine has been made full.30 He must increase, but I must decrease.31 "He who comes from above is above all, he who is of the earth is from the earth and speaks of the earth. He who comes from heaven is above all.32 What He has seen and heard, of that He bears witness; and no one receives His witness.33 He who has received His witness has set his seal to this, that God is true.34 For He whom God has sent speaks the words of God; for He gives the Spirit without measure.35 The Father loves the Son and has given all things into His hand.36 He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him."

Lent isn't just about religious rituals; it's an intentional journey towards deepening our relationship with Jesus. In this episode, I explore how to make this season meaningful—by slowing down, aligning our hearts with Christ, and preparing for the celebration of His resurrection. Let's think beyond the rules and focus on nurturing a vibrant faith. Whether through reading the Gospels, fasting, or acts of service, the goal is to seek Jesus wholeheartedly.In John 3, Jesus tells Nicodemus that many prefer darkness over light due to fear, comfort, or pride. Yet, stepping into the light is about healing, not shame. Jesus invites us to embrace His light, knowing we are already loved. What areas of your life need this light? Reflecting on this can bring profound personal growth and a deeper connection with God.The significance of Lent as a personal journey of faith.Viewing Lent as an opportunity to deepen one's relationship with Jesus.The importance of intentionality in seeking Jesus during Lent.Various ways to observe Lent, including reading the Gospels and practicing fasting.The relationship between faith and preparation for Easter.Reflection on the conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus in John chapter three.The meaning of God's love and its unconditional nature.The contrast between light and darkness in relation to accepting salvation.Encouragement to engage in reflective practices such as journaling and prayer.

Now there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews; 2 this man came to Jesus by night and said to Him, "Rabbi, we know that You have come from God as a teacher; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him." 3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God." 4 Nicodemus said to Him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?" 5 Jesus answered, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 That which has been born of the flesh is flesh, and that which has been born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Do not marvel that I said to you, 'You must be born again.' 8 The wind blows where it wishes and you hear its sound, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going; so is everyone who has been born of the Spirit." 9 Nicodemus answered and said to Him, "How can these things be?" 10 Jesus answered and said to him, "Are you the teacher of Israel and do not understand these things? 11 Truly, truly, I say to you, we speak of what we know and bear witness of what we have seen, and you do not accept our witness. 12 If I told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things? 13 And no one has ascended into heaven, but He who descended from heaven, the Son of Man. 14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up; 15 so that whoever believes will in Him have eternal life. 16 "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son...

We are in 1Jn 3:22-24 learning about Assurance of Fellowship with God who is Righteous. It is amazing that God wants us to fellowship with Him and He has made every provision for us, to enable us to come into His presence without condemnation and to enjoy His fellowship. Dr. Mitchell continues with our study in 1Jn 3:22.
Gary Millar speaking from John 3 The post QTC Chapel – John 3 – 25 February 2025 appeared first on Queensland Theological College.
Today's study takes us through 1Jn. 3 verses 19-21 speaking in them of the assurance that we, who know the savior Jesus Christ, are of the truth because we love in deed and truth. This brings a boldness before God when we pray and when we receive His answer to our request. Here is Dr. Mitchell, 1Jn3:19.
Dr. Mitchell continues our study in 1Jn3:14 with the Evidence of Fellowship with the God who is Righteous. We have an overview to the Opposition to Fellowship with the God who is Righteous and then the Evidence of Fellowship with this God. And what is this evidence? Once again, Dr. Mitchell, 1Jn3:14.
Dr. Mitchell begins our study today with a brief overview of the chapters we have covered so far in our study of 1 John. Today, concerning the moralist who is a wonderful person and lives a good life, Dr. Mitchell answers this question "Is the moral person righteous before God if he does not know Christ? Turn with us in your Bible to 1Jn.3:6 with Dr. Mitchell.

We are finishing chapter three, with the great reminder that "Jesus Is Preeminent"!
Send me a Text Message!Come see Jesus. If you are looking for something more, something great, a great life, come see Jesus. That's what Nicodemus did in John 3. He came to see Jesus and in the midst of seeking a great life, Jesus told him, "You must be born again!" That was certainly not clear to Nicodemus, born-again, what in the world is that?But then Jesus gave the clearest statement of the good news that leads to a great life. John 3:16. If you are looking for a great life...start here!
Born once? Die twice. Born twice? Die once. Jesus has a serious discussion with Nicodemus about being born again. God has been gracious to grant us a hopeful new start for life that stretches beyond our final breath.BIBLE VERSE References: JOHN 3:1-21 | JOHN 19:38-42 | MATTHEW 24:24 | EZEKIEL 26:25-28 | ROMANS 3:23 | ROMANS 5:12 | MATTHEW 5:21-23 | ROMANS 6:18-30 | 2 CORINTHIANS 5:17 | NUMBERS 21:4-8 | COLOSSIANS 2:10 | 2 CORINTHIANS 6:2 |

You Must Be Born Again (John 3:1-15) - Evening Sermon
In this sermon by Chris Romig, the focus is on the spiritual complacency and nominal Christianity reflected in the letter to the church in Sardis from the Book of Revelation. The church in Sardis had a reputation for being vibrant but was actually dead spiritually, much like the city itself, which was prosperous but clinging to past glories. Chris cautions that churches today may appear alive through programs, music, or eloquent preaching, yet lack a true spiritual connection with God. He stresses that true Christianity is not about church attendance or good actions, but about a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and transformation by the Holy Spirit. Many believers may participate in church traditions without truly understanding salvation and new life in Christ. Chris calls for an awakening from complacency, urging believers to embrace Jesus' promises and live out a vibrant faith. The message emphasizes the need for churches to foster genuine spiritual growth and not settle for mere appearances. Chris encourages believers to be alert, involved, and reflective of the transformative power of God's presence, aiming to build a church that truly embodies the lively spirit of the kingdom of God.

In this lecture, Don Carson explores the multifaceted nature of God's love as presented in the Bible, contrasting it with both historical and modern misconceptions. Carson outlines the five aspects of God's love and emphasizes that Jesus is the ultimate measure of this love. Carson concludes by highlighting faith, gratitude, and humility as the appropriate responses to God's love, which offers life and salvation through Christ.He teaches the following:God's love for both believers and unbelievers is a central theme in the BibleGod's providential love is non-discriminating, extending to both the just and the unjustThe importance of understanding Scripture's diverse expressions of God's loveFaith is the means by which we come to experience God's love and lifeRepentance and gratitude are the appropriate responses to understanding God's love and salvation
