We will be discussing Nicodemus and his dialog with Jesus on being born from above. Many of us don’t say it that way but that’s exactly what both he and Jesus said. Jesus spoke to Nicodemus concerning the mystery. Nicodemus was a Pharisee and he believed in the resurrection. As did all the Pharisees follow that teaching. But this statement of being born again was not the same as believing in the resurrection. So, no wonder he said “can a man enter the second time into his mother’s womb and be born”. And don’t want to forget “except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God”. Well, let’s talk about it.

I went back this week and reviewed last week’s message. I really enjoyed that word on “is obedience optional” and not obsessional. If you haven’t had a chance to listen, please stop by the website and check it out for yourself. This in fellowship we are going to study and talk about the believer being “Sealed” by the Holy Spirit. I also read something this week from our dear brother Dr. Warren Litzman on this subject. One of the things he said was ” We don’t know much about being sealed by the Holy Spirit, because most of us under law religion never had much security in our salvation.” He also stated that ” We didn’t understand this business of being sealed. What does the Holy Spirit do?” He was teaching from Ephesians 4:30. So, we’ll go over this issue of being “Signed, Sealed and waiting for delivery” . All is carried out by the Godhead. Let’s talk about it….

As you can see the message this week is a question, “Is obedience optional”?  Is it optional or not?  What do you think about this idea? Does the believer or unbeliever have an option to be obedient?  OK, maybe not the unbeliever but diffidently the born again believer.  There is no option for the new creation believer. Right? Did you know there are three expressions of obedience?  Only one obedience but three unique separate expressions for the one.

Let’s talk fellowship. Our subject is confusing and scary to so many of us.  Remember, if we don’t start where Paul started with the revelation of Christ first with any verse, we cannot understand what the Spirit is saying.  We might understand the words we’re reading but not know what He means without the revelation of Christ at work in us.  I was thinking and talking to the Father recently about very few people including believers and non-believers alike really don’t want to hear or know the person of Christ.  Some will settle for hearing about Jesus of Nazareth but the person of Christ is somewhat foreign.  And becoming a new creation race believer and Son can be tolerated but literally receiving and believing you are another person by Christ in you, is hard to wrap the carnal mind around (it’s impossible much less logical).  So, what does all that have to do the judgement of Christ? Let’s talk about it! If we can….
