Today, I would like to explain what this means. The Lord said, “Those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth” (John 4:24). This means that we must be moved by the Holy Spirit when we worship God—that is, we must be moved by God Himself. What kind of faith, then, is required to worship God in spirit and truth? It’s the kind of faith that requires us to worship God by believing that the Lord shouldered all our sins by being baptized by John the Baptist in the Jordan River, and that He also bore the condemnation of all these sins. In other words, we worship God in spirit and truth because of the gift of the Holy Spirit that we have received from God as a result of accepting the remission of sins into our hearts by faith. Because we believe in the gospel of the water and the Spirit, we are compelled to confess our faith and say, “God is my Lord and my God.”

Today, I would like to explain to you what we must all know to live out our faith. It’s written here in today’s Scripture reading that General Naaman was healed from his leprosy by Elisha, a servant of God. Naaman was the commander of the army of the king of Syria, and although he was a greatly honored man who made huge contributions to his kingdom, he was also a leper. At that time his leprosy was getting so bad that he was struggling to lead a normal married life or take care of the affairs of the kingdom. In his house during that time was a young girl from Israel working in his household as a slave brought in by captivity, and this Hebrew girl told Naaman’s wife that if only her master could go and see a prophet in Israel, he would be healed from his leprosy for sure. Upon hearing this good news, he went to Israel as a last-ditch effort, and as was the custom, he took the Syrian king’s personal letter to the king of Israel. The king of Israel then sent Naaman to God’s servant Elisha.

Today’s revival meeting addresses the question, “What does it mean to be truly born again?” As you are well aware, these days the phrase “being born again” is glibly used in various circles, including politicians and other religions. You might have heard politicians saying that their party must be born again, or someone saying that his family must be born again. People speak of being born again constantly. But what does being born again really mean? To be born again means, to be born with a new life. But I wonder how many speaking of this rebirth really know its true meaning, other than its simple notation. It’s most probably how people think that they can be born again when they just change their thoughts and behaviors.
