We are living in days of increasing danger. While we may not fear it nor be downhearted, it is certain that all of us will soon be in eternity. In view of this, provision for salvation has been made in the Person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ alone. By His death and victorious resurrection He has broken down every barrier, and provided a perfect ground for our acceptance before God.
Nothing could be more simple than the conversion of a soul to God, but it is a personal matter between God and the sinner, and must be settled in this life. Scripture says that unless a man be born again he can neither see nor enter the kingdom of God.
"Verily, verily [truly], I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." John 3:33Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. (John 3:3).
Many think that the great change of being "born again" is unnecessary. Some think that if they "do their best," and "live up to" their convictions, it will be all right with them in the end.
"Ye must be born again" are the words of the Lord Jesus Christ, and therefore are true words. In declaring the necessity of regeneration to Nicodemus, the Savior explained how spiritual birth takes place.
"And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up; that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:14-1614And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: 15That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:14‑16).
The Son of Man—the Lord of life and glory—was lifted up on Calvary's cross that we might be eternally saved by believing on Him.
Remember, the Word of the living God says, "Ye must be born again." Believe, therefore, with your heart on the Lord Jesus Christ, for "whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God." 1 John 5:11Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him. (1 John 5:1).
