certain things about you, so verily, verily I say that except a man be 'twiceborn' he cannot SEE the Kingdom of God. Except a man be born fromabove he cannot understand it.Well you say that isn’t the way it reads in my version. NO it doesn’t. Itsays in your version, 'Except a man be <strong>Born</strong> <strong>Again</strong> he cannot see theKingdom of God.' But that word, “<strong>Born</strong> <strong>Again</strong>” never existed in the textof the Scriptures in the early Alexandrian Version, in the original Aramaicin which John wrote.

'Marvel ye not that I say ye must be born fromabove, the wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound, soeveryone that is born of spirit goes forth.Nicodemus said: 'How can these things be?'
