John 3 Resources - Multiple Sermons and Commentaries NICODEMUS A PERSUADABLE PHARISEE Persuadable means open to persuasion, able to be urged, or prevailed upon successfully. Capable of being persuaded, open to being caused to believe or be convinced. To persuade means to move by argument, entreaty, or expostulation to a belief, position, or course of action. This nocturnal dialogue between Nicodemus and Jesus is described in John 3:1-21, although after John 3:9 Nicodemus fades into the background. Presumably he heard the extended teaching by Jesus in John 3:10-21. But before we begin recall the immediate context in Jn 2:23, 24+ "Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name, observing His signs which He was doing. But Jesus, on His part, was not entrusting Himself to them, for He knew all men." So without a break (there were no chapter breaks in the original text) the previous passage segues to Nicodemus. And even as Jews had observed Jesus’ signs (Jn 2:23+), Nicodemus’ opens with a statement that “no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him.” (Jn 3:2) A further connection with John 2:23-25+ and the fact that Jesus "knew what was in man" (Jn 2:25+) is the fact that Jesus now demonstrates that He knows what is in the heart of Nicodemus. Jesus could see beneath Nicodemus’ religious veneer and knew that Nicodemus’ religion could not save him, but that he needed the new birth. As the Gospel of John unfolds Nicodemus' story, there is good evidence that Nicodemus' superficial, non-saving belief became saving belief. In Jn 7:50-52 he stood up for Jesus and was rebuffed by his contemporaries. In John 19:39-40 Nicodemus clearly identified himself with Jesus indicating that he now had genuine, saving faith. How fascinating that in John's last mention of Nicodemus, he identifies him as the one "who had first come to Him by night." One cannot help but believe that there is play on words for Nicodemus' spiritual night in John 3 had been turned by the Spirit toward belief in the "Light of life" (Jn 8:12)! Amazing grace indeed!

João 3:30
John 3:30 "He must increase, but I must decrease (NASB: Lockman) Greek: ekeinon dei (3SPAI) auxanein (PAN), eme de elattousthai. (PPN) Amplified: He must increase, but I must decrease. [He must grow more prominent; I must grow less so.] (Amplified Bible - Lockman) BBE: He has to become greater while I become less. Cathers: The very nature of things demands that He and His ministry grow and that I become lesser in popularity. CEV: Jesus must become more important, while I become less important ESV: He must increase, but I must decrease.” [Note: Some interpreters hold that the quotation continues through Jn 3:36] NLT: He must become greater and greater, and I must become less and less. (NLT - Tyndale House)
