Luke 1:26-35<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

26 In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a town in Galilee called Nazareth, 27<\/sup>to a virgin engaged to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin\u2019s name was Mary. 28<\/sup>And he came to her and said, \u2018Greetings, favoured one! The Lord is with you.\u2019*<\/sup><\/a> 29<\/sup>But she was much perplexed by his words and pondered what sort of greeting this might be. 30<\/sup>The angel said to her, \u2018Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favour with God. 31<\/sup>And now, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you will name him Jesus. 32<\/sup>He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give to him the throne of his ancestor David. 33<\/sup>He will reign over the house of Jacob for ever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.\u2019 34<\/sup>Mary said to the angel, \u2018How can this be, since I am a virgin?\u2019*<\/sup><\/a> 35<\/sup>The angel said to her, \u2018The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born*<\/sup><\/a> will be holy; he will be called Son of God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

John 3:1-12<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

3Now there was a Pharisee named Nicodemus, a leader of the Jews. 2He came to Jesus* by night and said to him, \u2018Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God; for no one can do these signs that you do apart from the presence of God.\u2019 3Jesus answered him, \u2018Very truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God without being born from above.\u2019* 4Nicodemus said to him, \u2018How can anyone be born after having grown old? Can one enter a second time into the mother\u2019s womb and be born?\u2019 5Jesus answered, \u2018Very truly, I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God without being born of water and Spirit. 6What is born of the flesh is flesh, and what is born of the Spirit is spirit.* 7Do not be astonished that I said to you, \u201cYou* must be born from above.\u201d* 8The wind* blows where it chooses, and you hear the sound of it, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.\u2019 9Nicodemus said to him, \u2018How can these things be?\u2019 10Jesus answered him, \u2018Are you a teacher of Israel, and yet you do not understand these things?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11 \u2018Very truly, I tell you, we speak of what we know and testify to what we have seen; yet you* do not receive our testimony. 12If I have told you about earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you about heavenly things?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
