Where’s “penance?”

I highlighted it in bold. Read and meditate on the scripture I posted and it should be obvious.

The rest is your opinion.

Ezekiel is not cited, nor does that scripture in Ezekiel match the Evangelical model alleged in John. All one has to do is read Ezekiel to see it does not match the Evangelical model and interpretation of John.

It is clear you did not see the connection of God communicating that He would put His Spirit and cause one to walk in His statutes, with “The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.”

Christ explained to Nicodemus clearly born of the Spirit is an action of God not man.

The dialogue in John 3 confirms the promise of Ezekiel 36.

What is the official interpretation of the Catholic church for these passages?

And what do you have to refute my original point that God promises to cause one filled with His Spirit to walk in His statutes?
