Sunday Bulletin

Reflection Questions (Applying the Gospel to Our Lives):

1.     Do you act like a know-it-all sometimes, like Nicodemus?  How are you ignorant of spiritual truths like him?

2.    Why does Jesus emphasize the necessity of being born again?  (v. 3, v. 5)

3.    What did Nicodemus think being born again meant? (v. 4).  What, then, does it mean? (v. 5, v.8).

4.   Are you born again?  How do you know that you are born again? (vv. 14-15).

5.    End by praying that God would help us realize His love for us (vv. 16-17).
