Title: Yes, You Need the Holy Spirit (2)
Series: Let's Get Real-Answers to Life's Biggest Questions
Author: Scott Maze
Text: John 3:1-15
Biophysicist Petra Schwille has been working on creating a living cell from the bottom up for the past 10 years. He says he's always been fascinated by the question, "What distinguishes life from non-living matter?" For more than twenty years, researchers have been trying to create artificial cells, piecing together biomolecules in just the right context to approximate different aspects of life.1
Find John 3, and thank you for joining us in a series entitled "Let's Get Real: Answers to Life's Biggest Questions."
What modern science is attempting is the old story of Frankenstein. Victor Frankenstein is a Swiss science student who seeks to create an artificial man from pieces of human corpses. He runs around stealing pieces of vital organs from mortuaries and even trapping animals for parts to put his artificial man together. Eventually, he brings the artificial 8-foot man to life. The monster seeks affection but he's so creepy that everyone runs from him.
Jesus tells a religious teacher that you must be given spiritual life in order to have eternal life. No human effort can create a spiritual Frankenstein. Spiritual life is only created and given by God Himself.
Again find John 3, and thank you for joining us in a series entitled "Let's Get Real: Answers to Life's Biggest Questions." For the second week in a row, we are examining one of the most famous conversations in history.
It's the conversation between Nicodemus and Jesus. Jesus' message is just so rich that I left last week thinking we haven't done Jesus justice. This is the longest recorded conversation Jesus had with a religious leader.
Today's Scripture
Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. This man came to Jesus by night and said to him, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can ...
