  17. 5 – To Have God as Your Father That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. – John 3:6

  18. 5 – To Have God as Your Father I mean that the heir, as long as he is a child, is no different from a slave, though he is the owner of everything, but he is under guardians and managers until the date set by his father. In the same way we also, when we were children, were enslaved to the elementary principles of the world. But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons. And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!” So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God. – Galatians 4:1-7

  19. 5 Reasons Why theNew Birth isABSOLUTELYNECESSARY Conclusion

  20. Conclusion • To Be Able to See God • To Know Who God Is • To Worship God • To Really Love Others • To Have God As Your Father If you do not have the new birth, canyou please the Lord? Can you serve the Lord?

  21. Conclusion “The Bible teaches that there are only two tables in the world—the Table of the Lord and the table of demons. Corresponding to this, there are only two kinds of table manners. One kind of person receives what is passed to him, and another kind grabs what he wants. The former is suitable for the Table of the Lord, and the latter is hellish…His Word has promised an abundant portion for all His sons and daughters. Are you a son or daughter? Then there is no need to grab. If you are not a true son or daughter, then grabbing won’t help. Grabbing doesn’t work.” – Doug Wilson
