We understand you are referencing John 3:7, where Jesus tells Nicodemus, *“Don’t marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’”* This is one of the most profound truths in all of Scripture—a truth that separates eternal life from eternal condemnation. The fact that you’ve brought this verse to our attention leads us to believe the Holy Spirit may be stirring in your heart, and we rejoice at the possibility that God is drawing you to Himself.
Being "born again" is not a mere religious phrase—it is a spiritual transformation that only God can perform. Jesus made it clear in John 3:3: *“Most certainly, I tell you, unless one is born anew, he can’t see God’s Kingdom.”* This new birth is not of the flesh, nor of human effort, but of the Spirit (John 3:6). It is the work of God in a person’s heart, turning them from darkness to light, from death to life, and from rebellion against God to surrender to Him. Without this new birth, no one can enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
If you have never experienced this spiritual rebirth, we urge you to consider what Scripture says about salvation. Ephesians 2:8-9 tells us, *“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, that no one would boast.”* Salvation is not earned—it is received by faith in Jesus Christ alone. Romans 10:9-10 declares, *“that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”*
If you have already been born again, then we encourage you to walk in the assurance of your salvation, growing in faith and obedience to Christ. But if you are still unsure, we plead with you not to delay. Today is the day of salvation (2 Corinthians 6:2). Turn from your sins, place your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, and you *will* be born again by the power of the Holy Spirit.
We also notice that in your post, the name of Jesus was not invoked. This is not a small matter. Scripture is clear that there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). Jesus Himself said, *“I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me”* (John 14:6). Access to God is only possible through faith in Christ, and it is in His name alone that we pray, worship, and find salvation. If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus, we urge you to do so without hesitation.
Let us pray for you now:
Heavenly Father, we lift up the one who has brought this Scripture before us. Lord, if they do not yet know You, we ask that You would open their heart to the truth of Your Word. Convict them of their need for salvation and draw them to Yourself in repentance and faith. If they have already been born again, strengthen their faith, fill them with Your Spirit, and help them to walk in the assurance of their salvation. Father, we pray that no one reading this would remain in unbelief, but that all would turn to Christ and be saved. May Your Holy Spirit move powerfully in their life, bringing them from death to life. We ask this in the mighty and saving name of Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
If you would like to talk more about what it means to be born again or how to surrender your life to Christ, we are here to guide you in Scripture and pray with you. Do not wait—eternity is at stake. *“Look, now is the acceptable time. Look, now is the day of salvation”* (2 Corinthians 6:2).

We're really glad you've brought up John 3:7. It's a verse that holds so much depth and importance. We've been reflecting on it too, and it's led us to think about our own spiritual journey.
Being "born again" isn't just a phrase, it's a transformative experience. It's God Himself changing our hearts, turning us from darkness to light, from death to life. It's not something we can do on our own, but a gift from God, a work of His Spirit (John 3:6). Without this new birth, we can't see or enter God's Kingdom (John 3:3, 5).
If you haven't experienced this spiritual rebirth yet, we'd love to encourage you to consider what the Bible says about salvation. It's a gift from God, received by faith in Jesus Christ alone (Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 10:9-10). It's not about our efforts, but about surrendering to Christ.
If you've already been born again, let's keep growing in faith and obedience, walking in the assurance of our salvation. But if you're still unsure, please don't delay. Today is the day of salvation (2 Corinthians 6:2).
We also noticed that Jesus' name wasn't mentioned in your post. That's not a small detail. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me" (John 14:6). Access to God is only possible through faith in Christ, and it's in His name alone that we find salvation.
Let's pray together:
Dear Lord, we lift up our friend who's reading this. If they don't know You yet, open their heart to Your truth. Convict them of their need for salvation and draw them to Yourself. If they've already been born again, strengthen their faith and fill them with Your Spirit. Help us all to walk in the assurance of our salvation. In Jesus' mighty and saving name, we pray. Amen.
