Believing in Jesus is more than believing in His miracles; it is believing in His love and power to forgive our sins and give us clean hearts and desires to be faithful. If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. II Corinthians 5:17 Father God, Thank you for loving me and taking care of me. Bless my church, Pastor Ron, and his family. Bless my teachers for teaching me Your Word. I believe your love is fowing through me to other people. Help me to obey my parents so things will go well with me and I will live a long life on the earth. I will tell how great you are and how much I love you. I thank You that by Jesus stripes I am healed. In Jesus' name, Amen The goodness of God leads me to repentance. Romans 2:4 I will preach so they will hear the Gospel. Romans 10:14 God loved me so much that He gave His only Son for me. If I believe in Him I will not, perish but I will have eternal life. John 3:16 Nicodemus, a religious leader in Israel, had heard and seen the signs and wonders of Jesus ministry and now he was determined to fnd out for himself how Jesus did these things. He came to Jesus at night to avoid the opinions of other leaders who may think he was crazy. He told Jesus that he knew He had to be from God because of all the miracles. Jesus, knowing Nicodemus true needs answered Him saying, Unless a man is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God. Jesus meant that there was only one way for a man to be born again; he must believe that Jesus is the Son of God sent by His Father to save men from their sins. A man must be changed in his heart and his mind; a change so great that it might seem like he was coming into a new world by being born all over again like a baby. Nicodemus had believed he and all Jews were born into the family of God when they were born the frst time. Jesus told him that it is not enough to be a Jew, or to just believe Jesus was a great teacher sent by God. The only way to enter heaven is by trusting in Jesus as Savior.
