TO BE BORN OF THE WATER IS TO BE BORN OF THE WORD SINCE WATER IS SYMBOLIC OF THE WORD WHICH CLEANSES THE HEART
John 3:5
5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be BORN OF WATER and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
Eph.5:25-27
25Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with THE WASHING OF WATER BY THE WORD,
27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
John 4:13-14
13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:
14 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into EVERLASTING LIFE.
JOHN 6:63 TELLS US WHAT THE EVERLASTING LIFE IS:
John 6:63
It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
so the WATER = LIFE = WORD THUS WATER = WORD
JESUS LATER SAID THEY THAT WORSHIP GOD MUST WORSHIP HIM IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH WHICH IS THE WATER OF THE WORD HE GIVE.
NOTE IN THE TEXT BELOW ONLY THE WORD COULD CLEANSE THE HEART OF THE PERSON
John 15:3
3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.
Psalms 119:9
9 Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word.
Ezek.36:25-27
25 Then will I sprinkle clean WATER upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.
