How Does Jesus Enter The Holy Spirit

Decent Essays

In this passage, Jesus was trying to explain to Nicodemus how to enter the kingdom of God. In essence, He explained to him how to be reborn in the Holy Spirit. He goes into detail because Nicodemus, being human, did not understand. Nicodemus thought Jesus was being literal when he said that Nicodemus needed to be reborn. He was entirely confused, thinking that he actually had to born again by his mother. Jesus explained to him that it was not by physical rebirth, but of water and the Holy Spirit. In John 3:6 it says that the Spirit gives birth to the Spirit. And this is connected to Ezekiel 37 when it says that the Spirit breathes life to the slain. According to the Bible, without being born again we might as well be the bones in that valley.
