Nicodemus said, “But if a person is already old, how can he be born again? A person cannot enter his mother’s body again! So a person cannot be born a second time!”
But Jesus answered, “I tell you the truth. A person must be born from water and the Spirit. {\cf2\super [47]} If a person is not born from water and the Spirit, then he cannot enter God’s kingdom.
Jesus said, “I tell you the truth. You must eat the body of the Son of Man. {\cf2\super [94]} And you must drink his blood. If you don’t do this, then you don’t have real life in you.
A person that is not spiritual does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God. That person thinks that those things are foolish. That person cannot understand the things of the Spirit, because those things can only be judged spiritually.
