We cannot enter the kingdom of God with our own abilities, our religious practices or our good works. It’s just not possible. A dead person cannot resurrect themselves. The same is true of a spiritually dead person. Only God can give new life. So then, just as Nicodemus needed to be born again spiritually then, every person born physically today also needs to experience spiritual birth from God to enter the Kingdom of God.

When you believe in Jesus you are no longer an object of God’s wrath, but an object of God’s mercy. You will never be separated from life with God. You will enjoy a new way of life with God, and your future will be secure with Christ forever.

If the Spirit has set you free from the burden of the law, if the Spirit is changing you so you now want what God wants, and if the Spirit is empowering you to kill off the old life and embrace this new life in Christ – that means, the Spirit in You is leading you. And the very fact that you are living surrendered to His leading is a clear statement that you are a new person in Christ. More specifically, you are a child of God. And the good news is that God has done all of this for you.

God has revealed His kindness and love to us in Jesus. God has given us mercy in Jesus. God has washed us clean through Jesus. God has made us alive with Jesus. God has declared us innocent of guilt and made us totally acceptable in His presence. And now the gospel has given us a place to belong with God forever. That’s why the good news changes everything for us. And why everyone needs the gospel.

If Jesus had the authority to lay down his life and had authority to take up again – then you can trust in the authority of His Word. You can count on what Jesus says. And this should give you hope in the darkness. For when things looked darkest for the disciples, when their world seemed to be falling apart, and when all seemed lost… Jesus rose from the grave, just as he said he would. And if Jesus did what he said he would do by rising from the dead, you can trust him in whatever he promises.

Jesus paid it all. We’ve been set free. It’s of no value to live in the past and keep trying to keep proving yourself to God. You no longer have to do this. So stop doing it! That’s the first thing we must do to appropriate the power of our new life in Christ. Because as long as we are trying to measure up, Christ is of no value to us.

God’s Word tells us that your union with Christ connects you to a history far longer than you could ever trace in a family tree. It stretches from eternity past to eternity future and puts everything in between into fresh perspective. It tells you that God’s love for you stretches back before creation. It tells you that God has always had a plan for your life. Your life has purpose and meaning. It tells you that God has always wanted you to be with Him. And it tells you that God has always intended to make some thing beautiful of your life.

That’s why the resurrection changes everything. For when you receive Jesus you receive His Spirit. And when you receive His Spirit, you receive the power to live this new life of grace, truth, hope and love. And this is what our world needs today.
