The New Birth – Timothy Keller [Sermon]
Summary
The sermon explores Jesus's profound conversation with Nicodemus about spiritual rebirth, focusing on the metaphorical concept of being "born again" as a fundamental requirement for entering God's kingdom. Drawing from the Gospel of John, Jesus uses the metaphor of spiritual birth to explain that true transformation comes not from physical lineage or religious status, but through a supernatural work of the Holy Spirit. The key message emphasizes that salvation is a divine process of spiritual regeneration, requiring individuals to move beyond intellectual understanding to a complete spiritual renewal that can only come through faith in Christ.
