Jesus answered and said unto him,
Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born again,
he cannot see the kingdom of God.

For God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him
should not perish,
but have everlasting life.

For God sent not his Son into the world
to condemn the world;
but that the world through him
might be saved.

He that believeth on him
is not condemned:
but he that believeth not
is condemned already,
because he hath not believed
in the name of the
only begotten Son of God.

John 3:3,16-18
