Went to my random-verse-generator, prayed to have the third result be the same general message. Third result was John 3:3; "Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.(or, "born from above"; the wording in Greek is ambiguous)" This met the criteria in question.

I partially shrug it off as coincidence... verse of the day today was John 3:20. Not related by subject, but somehow it landed on the same chapter that contained the passage from last night.

Like I said, these "coincidences" really are a bit too consistent to fit the label...


No, really, Justin. A Ouija board or the I Ching does just as well. You should try them out before you commit to some particular idiocy. What? Not enough time to check out every random bit of quackery? Such is life.

All I'm saying is that, just because one thing works, it doesn't mean something else does not work equally well. It all depends on your criteria for what "works well". Don't try model rocketry if you don't understand how we decide what works well.
