What did Jesus say is required to see the kingdom of God?
Jesus answered Nicodemus that a person must be born again, or born from above, to see the kingdom of God. Only believers enter that kingdom; no unbeliever will be in it. This new birth is the necessary condition to see the kingdom.
Les teaches that Nicodemus came to Jesus by night and was head and shoulders above most Jews because he recognized the miracles were telling him something and knew Jesus was someone special. Jesus answered him that unless a person is born again—better rendered born from above—he cannot see the kingdom. Les explains only believers can go into the kingdom; no unbeliever will be in it. He then connects this to Matthew 24 and the tribulation timeline, noting the Antichrist defiles the temple at the midpoint.
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
