| Apr 4, 2016 at 6:30 | comment | added | mugume david | The theological approach to answering this question is very fascinating, and I agree, true. However, I would like to throw in something my teacher just told me: John 3: 3 is explained or simplified by John 3: 5 which states "born of water and spirit". I automatically thought water in this sense brought the baptism angle. However, being baptized is not a requirement to enter heaven. My teacher says "born of water" actually means maternal birth as with all humans that were given dominion over the earth in Gen 1: 26 where God (plural) states that them (humans) rule earth (excluding God). | |

But here again we see Him responding on topic -- to Nicodemus' error of thinking that he can see when in fact this is impossible because he has not yet been born again. | |
