THE GIFT OF GOD (1)
(Message by Tanny Keng)
1. The Gift of God
James 1:17 NIV
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.
a) When Jesus came to earth as a man and suffered and died on the cross so that you could be reconciled to God, He had you in mind, even though He had not created you yet.
(Acts 17:24-27 NIV)
“The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands. {25} And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything, because he himself gives all men life and breath and everything else. {26} From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live. {27} God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.
(Ephesians 4:7-8 NKJV)
But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift. {8} Therefore He says: “When He ascended on high, He led captivity captive, And gave gifts to men.”
