JOHN 3:1-3

¹Now there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:

²The same came unto him by night, and said to him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these signs that thou doest, except God be with him.

³Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born anew, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
