This is the time of rebirth!
Transfused in the blood of the spotless lamb of God!
Twice cleansed, purified, and immunized by grace,
So that all that are saved are sinless,
pure and innocent as you were at the baptismal font!
Speak truth as truth has been spoken in scripture.
Heal as has been healed by grace.
Show mercy as mercy has been shown.
Forgive as you have been forgiven.
Free others as you have been freed.
Love,
above all,
Love,
as you have been loved!
John 3:3-8 (RSV)
“Jesus answered him,
“Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born anew,
Nicode′mus said to him, “How can a man be born when he is old?
Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?”
Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you,
unless one is born of water and the Spirit,
he cannot enter the kingdom of God.
That which is born of the flesh is flesh,
and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘
You must be born anew.’
The wind blows where it wills,
and you hear the sound of it,
but you do not know whence it comes or whither it goes;
so it is with every one who is born of the Spirit.”
pure and innocent as you were at the baptismal font!
