John 3:3-4

John 3:3-4. Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, how can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born?

Staggering at the symbol, he stumbled at the letter of Christ’s saying, and did not perceive its inward sense.
