Matthew Henry
In this chapter we have, I. Christ's discourse with Nicodemus, a Pharisee, concerning the great mysteries of the gospel, in which he here privately instructs him, ver. 1-21. II. John Baptist's discourse with his disciples concerning Christ, upon occasion of his coming into the neighbourhood where John was (ver. 22-36), in which he fairly and faithfully resigns all his honour and interest to him....
Charles H. Spurgeon
Verily, verily I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? “If, at the very entrance to the kingdom of heaven, you say, ‘How can these things be?’ what will you say if I take you into the central metropolis of truth, and...

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. Spiritual men declare that there are spiritual things. They know them, and have seen them; and they have a right to be believed, for they are not liars. They are honest men, and speak what they do know; yet, often, their witness is not received. They need not be surprised at...
Charles H. Spurgeon
Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. If I have told you earthly things, Common-place things, the lower things of faith. “If I have told you these,”
Charles H. Spurgeon
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. The testimony of Christ, and of his apostles, and of all true disciples of Christ is this,--that there is such a thing as a new birth. Men may not believe that it is true; but, for all that, it is as certain as any other fact in the history of the world. It is foolish for any...
Charles H. Spurgeon
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen: and ye receive not our witness. This was an additional hint to Nicodemus of the unbelief that still lingered in him. “Ye receive not our witness.”
Charles H. Spurgeon
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Christ speaks with an authority that no mere human teacher can ever possess. Joh_3:11. We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. In a certain sense, every true minister of Christ and every true child of God, can say this, for we know that there is a spiritual kingdom. We have seen it, we have entered into it; and we...
Charles H. Spurgeon
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. This is true of all faithful ministers of the gospel; we do not preach theories, we preach facts. We do not talk about speculations; we speak of a new birth through which we have ourselves passed. If there be no such thing, we are liars unto you; but there is such a thing, and...
