Yahusha answered and said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again, they cannot see the kingdom of Elohiym.”
Nicodemus said to Him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?”
Yahusha answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit they cannot enter into the kingdom of Elohiym. That which has been born of the flesh is flesh, and that which has been born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again. The wind blows where it wishes and you hear its sound, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going; so is everyone who has been born of the Spirit.”
Nicodemus answered and said to Him, “How can these things be?”
Yahusha answered and said to him, “Are you the teacher of Israel and do not understand these things? Truly, truly, I say to you, we speak of what we know and bear witness of what we have seen, and you do not accept our witness. If I told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things? And no one has ascended into heaven, but He who descended from heaven, the Son of Man. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up; so that whoever believes will in Him have eternal life.
“For Elohiym so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life."
"For Elohiym did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him. He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of Elohiym. And this is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil. For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light lest their deeds be exposed. But those who practices the truth comes to the Light, so that their deeds may be manifested as having been done by Elohiym.”
This is the conversation between the Pharisee Nicodemus and Yahusha, son of the Virgin Mary. Pharisees believed in purity for all Jews guided by the Torah and the Talmud. However Yahusha thought of them as virtuous on the outside, but corrupted on the inside and a brood of vipers. What is interesting is that Vipers are nocturnal. They appear sluggish compared to other snakes, Nicodemus approached Yahusha at night and later Yahusha would be arrested and judged at night.
Nicodemus first sounded pleasant to Yahusha and then he spoke of common logic to Him by saying, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?”
What is missing in the text is how Nicodemus said it. To me it appears sarcastic. Common logic is only true on the surface. Anything can be hidden within.
I quote a Rabbi, "Jewish tradition teaches that there is nothing inherently wrong with our nature, so we do not need radical transformations."
Judaism sees being Born again as becoming committed to a Faith, not becoming committed to Elohiym made flesh. This is why Yahusha pointed out that being born again is being born of water and spirit. In one regard being born of water and spirit is to say born on Earth and born from above spiritually. What is interesting is that light is a particle and a wave. Water are particles acting like a wave because they are moved about. Light is the one natural thing that is the most like the spiritual.
I quote, "Particle nature of light states that light consists of particles called 'Photons'. Wave nature of light states that light behaves as an electromagnetic wave."
Somewhere in or below our universe are fallen angels locked up awaiting the Great White Throne Judgment. Particles can be contained but electromagnetic waves not so much. You would need a Faraday cage that prevents the escape of the EM fields.
“You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how will it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out to be trampled under foot by men. You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden; nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven." Matthew 5:13-16
Yahuah of Hosts chose to become flesh to provide a way of salvation. However He could become Spirit by choice. We see this in the transfiguration and His Resurrection. The Shroud has the image of Yahusha on it because of a powerful burst of energy that came from a dead body that was in the grave for three days. Fallen angels are more than a human, but there is no spiritual light in them. They will be cast into the Lake of Fire directly as so with the Antichrist and the False Prophet.
What Yahusha is providing is Spiritual life. This isn't flesh that decided to act differently. The flesh will continue to act wicked until it is transfigured or resurrected. What is available today is a new Spirit through Yahusha Hamashia. He had to go through the act of sacrifice for salvation to mean something. Death needed to be defeated. This is also saying that our flesh needs to overcome Evil to understand overcoming Evil in the Spirit. But we cannot do that alone. We defeat Evil in the name of Yahusha Hamashia called Jesus Christ.
When Yahusha asked, "If I told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things?" This is also connected to people loving darkness rather than the Light because their deeds were evil. The question is, why would Yahuah Elohiym provide a clean spiritual body if they love evil? The first step is to practice Truth so you can take in the Light of Yahuah Elohiym. By keeping everything a a superficial level, light cannot enter. If we can understand translogical thinking, we can understand entering Yahuah's Word, His Light. In translogical thinking it doesn't need to be logical to be true. Saying the sinner's prayer isn't logical but it is true.
By sitting in the Sun's light, you can feel the warmth under your skin. By setting in the Son's Light, you can feel the warmth in your consciencenes and know He is there.
Psalm 51:1-4 "Have mercy upon me, O God, according to Your steadfast love; according to the multitude of Your tender mercy and loving-kindness blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly [and repeatedly] from my iniquity and guilt and cleanse me and make me wholly pure from my sin!
Closing thoughts. Satan has built a web, a spiritual Faraday cage over the world. There are and will be times when Elohiym's light will feel like it's not there. But Elohiym's light is spiritually quantum entangled with those who are born again. This makes us targets of Satan's World Order. More like Disorder. But Satan cannot hold back the Power of Yahuah Elohiym's Love for His children, believers in Yahusha. The Old Testament Saints had to wait for the Resurrection of Yahusha Hamashia to enter Paradise. I believe when Yahusha entered Hell, He called for Abraham and to bring those who were there with him. Today when the believer passes from this Life, they enter Paradise directly. There they wait for the resurrection. This is a time where their bodies of light will meet up with particles. We the Believers will have a body like that of Yahusha Hamashia after His Resurrection. Gravesites will be opened as it did with the Tomb of Yahusha Hamashia. Just by overcoming surface logic and acknowledging Yahusha Hamashia, it has benefits outside the space time continuum.
