And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.
Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
