A New Perspective

We see Jesus' answers give us different perspectives of life that never hit our thinking hat. When he answered Nicodemus, When he spoke and answered to the Women at the Well. When he spoke, healed the blind from the birth.

For Nicodemus Jesus said, "you shall be born again" giving us an idea about the fact that one who speaks and does the will of God is one who has born again, speaking of people who think they are Godly, but if they are in sin they still hypocritically can speak and act as if they do the God's will, but to enter into the kingdom of God, one has to be born again. Jesus shifts Nicodemus thoughts about these elements and gives him a new perspective about life after death, entering into the kingdom of God. etc

To the Women at the Well, Jesus said, "Go, call your husband and come back."  The women thought "living Waters" are just like the physical water could be carried by a vessel, but Jesus gives us a new perspective that if she wants the "life giving water - Living Water" she has to be holy, she has to be worthy in her spiritual life, Jesus wants her to see that she missed her point when she was not having the right kind of relationships, how can she claim for that "Life giving water"?

John 9 tells us about the man born blind, Jesus gave us a new perspective by healing him, saying he was blind,

John 9:3 NIV
"Neither this man nor his parents sinned," said Jesus, "but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him.
