Sep 28, 2025    Mark South

In this sermon, Pastor Mark explores the passages of John 2:13-25 and John 3:1-15, focusing on Jesus' cleansing of the temple and His conversation with Nicodemus. Pastor Mark discusses the themes of heart blindness caused by busyness, distraction, and religious formalism, and the necessity of a spiritual rebirth to truly see and enter the Kingdom of God. He emphasizes that true worship and transformation require more than outward actions and religious words; they require a deep, internal, and spiritual change that only comes from being born again.

The sermon concludes with a personal reflection on his father's legacy, emphasizing the vital importance of being born again.
