WE cannot wear the title Christian if we are living a life other than Christian. If we claim to be BORN AGAIN by the power of the Holy Spirit, We must demonstrate the fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23). If we claim to have a new relationship with God. We must also have a new relationship with SIN (1 John 3:9). A good tree cannot bare to live with bad fruit (Matthew 7:16). It will be compelled by the Holy Spirit to right itself because Gods seed lives in him. Flesh produces flesh, spirit produces spirit. Do not marvel at this Jesus said to Nicodemus when I tell you YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN FROM ABOVE (John 3:3-10) Jesus preached, Matthew 7:16: A Tree and its Fruit 15Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheeps clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. 16You will know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes nor figs from thistles, are they? 17So every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit.… Galatians 5:22-23 (ESV) 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is:love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. 1 John 3:9: Children of God 8the one who practices sin is of the devil; for the devil has sinned from the beginning.

He cannot enter a second time into his mothers womb and be born, can he? Jesus and Nicodemus 5Jesus answered, Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7Do not be amazed that I said to you, You must be born again.…
