In Christ we can be on the earth but in God’s Kingdom simultaneously. We are born of the flesh at our birth and born of the Spirit when we accept salvation and the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. It is impossible to fully understand the things of God without the Heart of God residing within us. Invite Him into your life without reservation.
We live and breath and have our being IN God whether on this earth or in heaven and we can go in and out finding peace, His peace, that He gives to all of us who believe in Him without doubting His power to work for good that which we place in His hands.

The Holy Spirit takes the things of God and gives them life….eternal life!
Jesus used the phrase “born of water” to refer to physical birth. He then used the contrasting phrase “of the Spirit” to refer to spiritual birth. The new birth is by the Son, by the Cross, and by faith.
Every time the words lifted up occur in the Gospel of John there is a reference to Jesus’ death. When Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, those who looked at it lived.
So it is with the Son of Man.
So it is with the Son of Man.
John 3:5
5 Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
John 3:13-15
13 No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven. 14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, 15 that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life
38 Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Acts 2:38
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption.
1 Corinthians 15:50
4Who has ascended into heaven, or descended? Who has gathered the wind in His fists? Who has bound the waters in a garment? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is His name, and what is His Son’s name, If you know?
Proverbs 30:4
47The first man was of the earth, made of dust; the second Man is the Lord from heaven.
1 Corinthians 15:47
36 He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.”
John 3:36
