A prestigious religious leader of his time, Nicodemus sought out Jesus under cover of darkness to learn more about Him. When they met, Jesus spoke plainly about the kingdom of God and the predicament that man faces. He explained that external religion—all the usual things we rely on to gain divine favor—cannot open the door to God’s kingdom. As Alistair Begg points out, though, Jesus also offered a solution: an invitation to be born again and receive eternal life.
1Now there was a man of the Pharisees named hNicodemus, ia ruler of the Jews. 2This man came to Jesus1 jby night and said to him, k“Rabbi, lwe know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do munless God is with him.” 3Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is nborn oagain2 he cannot psee the kingdom of God.” 4Nicodemus said to 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?” 5Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born qof water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.
