Explain in your own words in a paragraph of no less than 125 words what jesus' message to nicodemus was and what that message means. use at least three scripture verses to back up your answer. (if you need , review unit 7, lesson 8.) 1. to come to him: "all that the father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me i will in no wise cast out." (john 6: 37) 2. to receive him: "but as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of god, even to them that believe on his name." (john 1: 12) 3. to call upon him: "for whosoever shall call upon the name of the lord shall be saved." (romans 10: 13) 4. to confess him with the mouth: "for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." (romans 10: 10) 5. to commit oneself to and rely completely upon him: "to timothy, my dearly beloved son: grace, mercy, and peace, from god the father and christ jesus our lord." (2 timothy 1: 12) 6. to obey his word: "and why call ye me, lord, lord, and do not the things which i say? " (luke 6: 46)

The message to Nicodemus is Jesus telling Nicodemus what it means to be 'born again'. Jesus explained that first you needed to follow the word of the Lord ( "And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?" Luke 6:46) If you dont follow his word and do as he says then you are not faithful. He also explains that God gives him wisness and that wiseness he casts out ( "All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out." John 6:37) and that also ties in with following the word of the Lord. When Jesus speaks wiseness he is speaking out the word of god and that one shall listen to him. Jesus also says that one shall be bathed by holy water or baptized. When you are baptized you are saved ("For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." Romans 10:13). When you are baptized and you follow the Lord and are faithful to him you will be 'born again' as a Christian and will be saved by god.

Sadly I am late but i will still post it

the   square   deal   was   a   program   where   the   government gave any one   a fair   chance   to succeed

one of the main reasons was definitely slavery. back in 1861, republican abraham lincoln was elected and ended up being a major influence in the slavery business. slavery greatly affected the texas economy because back in 1845 during the annexation of texas, slaves became a big part of the texas population. many texans that were in favor of the secession influenced groups through party ties.
