Introduction

We end week number 500 on the podcast to day. And we end it with a sharp bible question from a listener named derrick who lives in seattle. Pastor john, hello, i have a bible question for you about the new birth. Peter wrote that believe s are born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable through the living and abiding word of god. The question then follows, how do the holy spirit and the word of collaborate in the new birth? Great questione. Will lus start by reminding ourselves that the reason we must be born again is because, by nature, by birth, we are all spiritually dead.
