Rebirth
Jesus invites us into new life with God. His grace is a gift, not something we earn.
Bible reading
Isaiah 55:10–11; John 3:3–8; Ephesians 2:8–10
Jesus speaks of new birth through the Spirit. Paul teaches that salvation comes by grace through faith, leading to a life of good works. God's word will not return to Him empty — it does the work He sends it to do.

Straight from the Bible
For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
Plain wordsRain and snow fall and soak the ground so seed can grow and bread can be made. So it is with God's word: it never comes back empty. It does the work He sends it to do.
TagalogGaya ng ulan at niyebe na bumabagsak mula sa langit at hindi bumabalik nang walang nagawa, kundi dinidilig ang lupa upang tumubo ang halaman, magkaroon ng binhi ang naghahasik, at tinapay ang kumakain — gayon din ang salita ng Diyos na lumalabas sa Kanyang bibig: hindi ito babalik na walang kabuluhan. Gagawin nito ang Kanyang kalooban at magtatagumpay sa layuning ipinadala Niya.
