When a woman is in labour she is sorry, for her time has come; but when the child is born she remembers her anguish no longer, for joy that a human being has been born into the world:

Nicodemus said to him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter his mother's womb over again and be born?"

What is born of the flesh is flesh: what is born of the Spirit is Spirit.

Anyone who is born of God does not commit sin, for the offspring of God remain in Him, and they cannot sin, because they are born of God.

Everyone who believes Jesus is the Christ, is born of God; and everyone who loves the Father, loves the sons born of him.

We know that anyone who is born of God does not sin; He who was born of God preserves him, and the evil One never catches him.

but when the time had fully expired, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the Law,

but while the son of the slave-woman was born by the flesh, the son of the free-woman was born by the promise.

but just as in the old days the son born by the flesh persecuted the son born by the Spirit, so it is still to-day.

"So you are a king?" said Pilate, "you!" "Certainly," said Jesus, "I am a king. This is why I was born, this is why I came into the world, to bear testimony to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to my voice."
