Amen Kriss! I have been reading this thread for a while, and it reminded me of these scriptures. They brought joy to my heart and I thought I would share them with you .
~~~John 3:3-6 (KJV)(Jesus teaches Nicodemus)
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?
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; that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.* I love what Jesus said to Nicodemus? ..I read the whole Chapter .~~~~John 4:7-14(KJV) (Jesus talks to a Samaritan woman)
7 There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water; Jesus saith unto her; Give me to drink.
8 For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.
9 Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou being a Jew, askest drink of me. which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealing with the Samaritans?
10 Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God and who it is that saith unto you, Give me to drink; thou wouldest asked of him; and he would have given thee living water.
11 The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast that living water?
12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well and drink of himself, and his children, and his cattle?
13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drink of this water shall thirst again.
14 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thrist; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water spinging up unto everlasting life.~~~~ :grouphug: :blessyou:
