Being born from Above

In this post I will explore the Bible

to see all about Jesus being from Above

and about being born from Above.

Spiritual Birth is what each of us needs to live forever.

 

Jesus has seen the Father and is from the Father:

John 6:46

not that anyone has seen the Father except the One who is from God; only He has seen the Father.

 

Jesus knows the Father who sent him and Jesus is from the Father:

John 7:29

But I know him: for I am from him, and he has sent me.

 

Jesus is from above which is heaven and is above all:

John 3:31

The One who comes from above is above all. The one who is from the earth belongs to the earth and speaks as one from the earth. The One who comes from heaven is above all.

 

All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Jesus:

Matthew 28:18

Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me.

 

The Father loves Jesus and has placed all in his hands:

John 3:35

The Father loves the Son and has placed all things in His hands.

 

Whoever belongs to God hears the words of God:

John 8:47

Whoever belongs to God hears the words of God. The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God.

 

We must be born from above before we can see God’s Kingdom:

John 3:3

Jesus replied, “I tell you for certain that you must be born from above before you can see God’s kingdom!”

 

We must be born of water and of the Spirit before we can get into the Kingdom of God:

John 3:5

Jesus answered, Truly, truly, I say to you, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

 

That which is born of the Spirit is spirit:

John 3:6

That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

 

Whoever is born of the Spirit,hears the Spirit:

John 3:8

The wind blows where it wishes. You hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.

 

Jesus is not of this world,yet those of this world are of this world:

John 8:23

And he said to them, You are from beneath; I am from above: you are of this world; I am not of this world.

 

Summary:

In order to be born from above,

you must be born of the Spirit and of water.

Once born from above,

you will be born from heaven and hear from God directly.
