Regeneration

Summary

The sermon emphasizes the biblical doctrine of regeneration or being born again, highlighting that it is a work solely of God and the Holy Spirit, not human effort or preaching alone. It draws parallels between Elijah's ministry during a spiritual drought and Jesus' ministry, illustrating that miracles alone do not convert hearts, but the still, small voice of God does. The conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus in John 3 is central, teaching that spiritual rebirth is necessary to perceive the kingdom of God. The sermon concludes by affirming the evidence of regeneration through the fruit of the Spirit in believers' lives.
