The Choice of Nicodemus

Since we were not yet alive during the ministry of Jesus Christ on the earth, we have no idea what it was like to be invited by Jesus to join Him in His work. We may believe that we would have not hesitated at all, had Jesus asked us to follow Him. Like the rich young man who asked Jesus how he might attain eternal life, would we be willing to give up positions, homes and possessions? One man had such a moment, and in this Sermonette we will consider the Scriptures that cover the interaction that Jesus Christ had with a certain powerful Pharisee named Nicodemus, and what lessons we can draw from the brief but meaningful time they spent discussing this very question.
