Reading the posts on Nicodemus, I came across an old question in my
mind taht I was asked years ago that I had no answer for. First off
I do believe that John 3:5 speaks of baptism in water and of the Holy
Ghost. but here are the questions I came across.
John 3:5 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born of
water and (of) the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
[6] That which is born of the flesh is flesh: and that which is born
of the Spirit is spirit.
Quest 1 or interpreptation 1. Does the water mean natural birth (a
woman breaks water during a birth or so my home ec. teacher said) and
the spirit mean salvation birth?
Quest 2 or interpreptation 2. Does the water mean baptism and the
spirit mean holy ghost baptism? (THis is mine).
quest 3 or Interp. 3. How does verse 6 fit in?
Enjoy thinking. I will post my answers to this later.
