This passage means that since Jesus could die on the Cross to pay the wages of sin because He had been baptized by John the Baptist, and since He has enabled us to be born again by rising from the dead again, we should have faith in this gospel of the water and the Spirit. Our Lord has blessed all those who believe in the gospel of the water and the Spirit to be able to be born again.
Ibig sabihin ng talatang ito na yamang si Jesus ay namatay sa Krus upang bayaran ang kasalanan dahil Siya'y binautismuhan ni Juan Bautista, at yamang tinulot Niya tayo na isilang na muli sa pamamagitan ng pagkabuhay na muli, dapat tayong magkaroon ng pananampalataya sa ebanghelyo ng tubig at ng Espiritu. Pinagpala ng Diyos lahat niyaong nananalig sa ebanghelyo ng tubig at ng Espiritu upang tulutang isilang na muli.Sa Pamamagitan ng Anong Pananampalataya Tayo ay Makapapasok sa Kaharian ng Diyos?
