15 Truly I say to you, whoever will not receive the kingdom of God as a child, he will, no, not enter it.
5 Jesus answered, Truly, truly, I say to thee, If any man is not begotten from water and Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6 That which is begotten from the flesh is flesh, and that which is begotten from the Spirit is spirit.
7 Marvel not that I said to thee, ye must be begotten from above.
3 Blessed is the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who begot us again according to his abundant mercy for a living hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
4 for an inheritance imperishable, and undefiled, and unfading, reserved in heavens for you,
4 We were buried therefore with him through the immersion into death, so that as Christ was raised up from the dead through the glory of the Father, so also we may walk in newness of life.
5 For if we have become co-planted in the likeness of his death, then we will also be of the resurrection.
6 Knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, so that the body of sin might be inactivated, no longer to enslave us to sin.
7 For he who has died has been made righteous away from sin.
1 Behold what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we may be called children of God. Because of this the world does not know you, because it did not know him.
2 Beloved, now we are children of God, and it is not yet made known what we will be. But we know that whenever he is made known we will be like him, because we will see him as he is.
17 So then if any man is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away, behold, all things have become new.
23 begotten again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God that lives and remains into the age.
11 So also ye, reckon yourselves to be indeed dead to sin, but living to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
22 for you to put off the old man according to your former conduct, the man who is corrupt according to the desires of deceitfulness,
23 and to be renewed in the spirit of your mind,
24 and to put on the new man according to God, the man who was created in righteousness and piety of the truth.
12 But as many as did accept him, to them he gave power to become children of God, to those who believe in his name,
13 who were begotten, not from blood, nor from a will of flesh, nor from a will of man, but from God.
2 as newborn babes, long for the genuine intellectual milk, so that ye may grow by it,
3 if indeed ye have tasted that the Lord is excellent.
4 But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth his Son, born from a woman, born under law,
5 so that he might redeem those under law, so that we might receive the sonship.
3 Jesus answered and said to him, Truly, truly, I say to thee, If any man is not begotten from above, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
4 Nicodemus says to him, How can a man be begotten, being old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's belly, and be born?
5 Jesus answered, Truly, truly, I say to thee, If any man is not begotten from water and Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6 That which is begotten from the flesh is flesh, and that which is begotten from the Spirit is spirit.
7 Marvel not that I said to thee, ye must be begotten from above.
8 The wind blows where it will, and thou hear the sound of it, but know not from where it comes, and where it goes. So is every man who is begotten from the Spirit.
1 In that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Who then is greater in the kingdom of the heavens?
2 And having called in a child, Jesus set it in the midst of them.
3 And he said, Truly I say to you, if ye are not turned, and become as children, ye will, no, not enter into the kingdom of the heavens.
4 He therefore who will make himself lowly as this child, this man is the greater in the kingdom of the heavens.
3 Jesus answered and said to him, Truly, truly, I say to thee, If any man is not begotten from above, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
4 But God, being rich in mercy, through his great love that he loved us,
5 even us being dead in the transgressions, he made alive together with the Christ (ye are saved by grace),
19 And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you. And I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them a heart of flesh,
20 that they may walk in my statutes, and keep my ordinances, and do them. And they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
20 I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. And what I now live in flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God who loved me and gave himself up for me.
9 Do not lie to each other, having stripped off the old man with his practices,
10 and having put on the new man, being renewed in knowledge according to an image of him who created him,
11 where there is no Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, bondman, freeman, but the all and in all, Christ.
4 We were buried therefore with him through the immersion into death, so that as Christ was raised up from the dead through the glory of the Father, so also we may walk in newness of life.
