Nicodemus saith unto Him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter a second time into his mother's womb, and be born?

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

But as then he that was born after the flesh, persecuted him who was born after the Spirit, even so it is now.

Whosoever is born of God doth not practise sin, because his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

Pilate therefore said unto Him, Art thou then a king? Jesus answered, Thou sayest right, I am a king. For this end was I born, and for this came I into the world, even that I might bear witness to the truth. Every one that is of the truth, heareth my voice.
