Then God tells us that the Spirit is like the wind; though it is invisible, we see the work it does. <ref>{{bgw|Joh 3:8 }} 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. </ref> | |||
