DAILY READINGS: Leviticus 4:27 to 5:13; Psalm 104; Acts 27:1-26
Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. John 3:7
A noticeboard outside a church building in Alabama said, “If you
don’t like the way you were born, try being born again.” The Lord
Jesus gave a stronger message to a religious leader in his day. He
told Nicodemus, “Ye must be born again.” Note he said “must”,
not “would be advised” or “try”. To be born into the human race
was not something you or I had a choice in. But to be born again is
an individual person’s own matt er of deliberate choice and positive
action. Have you been born into the family of God by exercising
personal faith in the Lord Jesus? —Brian Powlesland
Ye children of men att end to the word, so solemnly utt ered by Jesus the Lord;
And let not this message to you be in vain, Ye must be born again!—W. T. S.
