In Episode 20 of The Proceeding Word, Ps Brian Heath and Emily Braithwaite explore one of the most important teachings of Jesus: being born again.
Reading from John chapter 3, they unpack Jesus’ conversation with Nicodemus and explain why being religious is not the same as being spiritually reborn. This episode clearly outlines what happens when someone receives Christ, what it means to believe in His name, and why salvation is by grace through faith.
Ps Brian explains the supernatural reality of the new birth, becoming a new creation, being made alive together with Christ, complete forgiveness through the cross, and adoption into the family of God. The episode also outlines clear evidence of genuine conversion, including repentance, passion for God, and a transformed life.
If you have ever wondered what being born again truly means, this episode offers biblical clarity and a personal invitation to respond.
