Speaker: Ajarn Kelvin
The Second Birth
 
 
When we are created, God made us in the likeness of Him. We have a spirit. What is in your spirit? Conscience. Intuition. Intellect.
If we have problem with conscience and we tell the doctor the problem we asked the doctor for a conscience transplant the doctor cannot do it although the doctor knows we have this problem but cannot help us.
 
When we do wrong, we feel guilty. The lie detector checks our answers. First they ask easy questions and then when we become relaxed, they ask the major question to test the honesty.
 
A pastor went into the forest to a tribe in philippines, who has never seen civilization.
In order to explain about god, he said that God created all the food for them. Then he said, we made God sad. They ask why? This is something that makes our conscience feel bad stuff like lying, cheating, immoral Behavior.
They agreed that it`s true and begin to cry and said it separates them from the good things. Sin is what that keeps us from God.
 
Luke 18: 18-30
Nicodemus was a strong and educated Jewish leader.
He was a good man, did a lot of good things and was an honorable and well respected person.
He had a question for Jesus.
What do we have to do to have eternal life?
Jesus answered we have to be born again.
Nicodemus was puzzled. Jesus said his Spirit has to be reborn.
 
Sin is common to man. From Young we start sinning. The only way to reach the Kingdom of heaven is to have spiritual birth.
Jesus said unless a person is born again, he will not see the kingdom of heaven.
 
The speaker accepted God during his teens and repented and became a free man
Life was changed from that day and it was wonderful to be free from sin.
Nicodemus was a good man but we have to be born again as sin  must be forgiven.
How`s the religions tell us to be good and to do good things in order to be saved. But how much good things to do?
Jesus says our sins must be called forgiven and person to become clean.
Unless we have a spiritual birth we cannot enter the kingdom of heaven. We have to get rid of sin and only Jesus can help us get rid of sin
John 14:6
