The Big Question - St Mary Abbots 170208

John 3.16

The answer to the questions of Nicodemus, the Pharisee, about what must a person do to be born again (or to be born anew)?

Only in John.

Nicodemus comes at night so that people do not know.

Asks Jesus a key question - how do I attain salvation.

Interesting question to ponder and the road through Lent.

Link to baptism - imagery of water anbd spirit.

This slavation is a gift of Go; perfected in Jesus - achieved through the transformation of suffering and a looking to the resurrection.
