Nicodemus by Night: Discovering New Birth with Jesus

📖 Introduction

Welcome to a transformative 21-day journey through the Bible, centered on the mysterious and profound encounter between Nicodemus and Jesus. This study invites you to dive deep into the concept of new birth and Jesus’ gentle yet challenging way of addressing religious thinking and tradition.

Nicodemus, a Pharisee and member of the Jewish ruling council, came to Jesus by night (John 3:1-21). This encounter is not just a historical event but a spiritual allegory for all seeking deeper truth and transformation. You will discover that Jesus doesn’t reject Nicodemus; instead, He engages him with grace and wisdom, calling him—and all of us—to reconsider preconceived notions about life, faith, and salvation.

The concept of being 'born again' may have initially puzzled Nicodemus, but this fresh birth, prompted by the Spirit, is available to everyone willing to receive it. Throughout the coming weeks, we will explore how Jesus’ teachings break through religious formalism and invite authentic spiritual rebirth and renewal. This journey will challenge you to reflect, respond, and perhaps experience your own new birth as you meditate on Scripture and apply it to your heart.

Get ready to embrace the mysteries of faith, the power of the Spirit, and the profound love Jesus expresses for those struggling within the bounds of religious systems. Whether you’re deeply rooted in church life or just beginning your walk with God, this study will encourage you to listen to Jesus' invitation—offered quietly by night yet echoing loudly through all time.

Let’s begin this journey with open hearts and minds, ready to be shaped by the Word and transformed by His grace.
