The Transforming Power of New Birth: Understanding Nicodemus' Encounter with Jesus (John 3:1-21)

This passage captures one of the most profound encounters in the Gospel of John: the nighttime meeting between Jesus and Nicodemus. Nicodemus, a Pharisee and respected teacher, approached Jesus with a respectful acknowledgment of His divine authority, but what followed was a conversation that transcended religious understanding and cut to the heart of what it means to be spiritually reborn.
