Today, we come to the story of Nicodemus and what does it mean to be "born-again." Nicodemus totally misunderstood, thinking as a Jew, as a Pharisee, as a descendant of Abraham, as an expert in the Old Testament and a legalistic follower of all the Jewish rituals, rules and regulations, he was on his way to heaven. Jesus shockingly tells him the ladder he has leaned against that wall to heaven is actually leaning against the wrong wall. What does it mean to be "born again?"
