ÄvĀ Wettstein Happy Birth Days & Lives.

I Love you.

When I say “happy birthday days and lives,” I mean more than one birthday. There is the birth of the flesh, and there is the birth of the spirit in Jesus. Because of that, there are days and lives worth celebrating—not just one.

We are born once into the world through the flesh, but in Jesus Christ we are born again by the Spirit. That second birth is not symbolic only; it is a real beginning of a new life. So “birthday days and lives” acknowledges both the physical beginning and the spiritual rebirth that comes through Jesus.

Scripture that attests to this

John 3:3
Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.”

John 3:6
Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit.

2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!

Galatians 2:20
I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

1 Peter 1:23
For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.
