John 3:1

Nicodemus
Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a leader of the Jews.

2 He came to Jesus at night and said, “Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs You are doing if God were not with him.”

3 Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again.”
