Part of the problems we have in the body of Christ, today, is that we have so many people that have head knowledge of Jesus but without a living relationship with Christ. When I was a young man, I used to memorise a lot of Scriptures and in my pride as a young man, I did not memorise the short Bible verses, but the longer ones. When I did not know Christ, they would invite me to fellowship meeting to come and recite the scriptures off-hand.
So, when I was growing up, I got to know you can teach scriptures, you can preach scriptures, you can come out with wonderful explanations or whatever about the scriptures, but that doesn’t mean that you are a child of God. Jesus said that it is by your fruits you will be known, not by your teaching ability, not by the position you occupy in the church and not by your preaching ability. No, but by your fruits, by what the Word of God had worked out in your life, you will be known.
Nicodemus said we know you are teacher from God, but Jesus said to him, “Verily, verily, I say to you except you are born again, you will not see the kingdom of God.” What Has Jesus response got to do with what Nicodemus had said? Absolutely nothing! The man was praising Jesus as being a teacher sent by God. The man was stating what he thought or knew to be the evidence that Jesus came from God, but Jesus went from the right angle, if you like from a tangent and started saying something else.
