Sermon Title Slide: Uncharted Waters

John 3:8 (NLT) The wind blows wherever it wants. Just as you can hear the wind but can’t tell where it comes from or where it is going, so you can’t explain how people are born of the Spirit.”

Romans 8:5-8 (NLT)
5 Those who are dominated by the sinful nature think about sinful things, but those who are controlled by the Holy Spirit think about things that please the Spirit. 
6 So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace. 
7 For the sinful nature is always hostile to God. It never did obey God’s laws, and it never will. 
8 That’s why those who are still under the control of their sinful nature can never please God.

Romans 8:12-14 (NLT)
12 Therefore, dear brothers and sisters, you have no obligation to do what your sinful nature urges you to do. 
13 For if you live by its dictates, you will die. But if through the power of the Spirit you put to death the deeds of your sinful nature, you will live. 
14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.

James 3:4 (NIV) Or take ships as an example. Although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the pilot wants to go.
