You remain clueless ... and your pride in fidelity to the catholiciism religious system of sacramental working for worthiness is blinding you from seeing just how utterly confused you are!

Nicodemus was in a similar fix. Jesus clarified for Nic by pointing to the simplicity of the brass snake on the pole ... the Adamic Nature is deadly poisonous; faith in GOD's Promise to heal from the poison is all it takes to cure the effect of the Adam nature we inherited.

Faith in The One GOD sent for our cure, the ONE raised up upon that cruel cross, is all it takes.

Jesus didn't give Nicodemus a long list of sacramental strivings that would be required to finally receive GOD's GRACE IN CHRIST JESUS.

Do you believe GOD is able to raise you up as a member of HIS family? If you do, then look to Jesus with the pure faith of a little child and be born from above to be raised from infancy to maturity.

As Paul wrote, "It is GOD Who is in you, both to will and to do of HIS good pleasure." As He raises you up, HE focuses the glory on Christ, never your strivings./
