GOD, OUR HEAVENLY FATHER, GAVE!
John 3:14-18 - And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man (Jesus as the Son of Mary) be lifted up: that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that He gave His Only Begotten Son (Jesus as the Son of God), that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved. He that believes in Him is not condemned: but he that believes not is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the Only Begotten Son of God.
1 John 5:10-11 - He that believes in the Son of God has the witness in himself: he that believes not God has made (called) Him a liar; because he believes not the record that God gave of His Son. And this is the record, that God has given to us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.
JESUS, OUR LORD AND SAVIOR, GAVE!
Galatians 1:3-5 - Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ, Who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: to Whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.
Galatians 2:20 - I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh, I live by the faith of the Son of God, Who loved me, and gave Himself for me.
Ephesians 5:25 - Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave Himself for it.
1 Timothy 2:1-6 - I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; for kings, and for all who are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
Titus 2:11-14 - For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ; Who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto Himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.
THE HOLY SPIRIT GIVES!
John 3:5-8 - Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto you, You must be born again. The wind blows where it listeth (wishes; wills), and you hear the sound thereof, but can not tell whence (from where) it comes, and whither (where) it goes: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
1 Corinthians 12:4-11 - Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God Who works all in all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal (all). For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; to another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; to another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: but all these worketh (are the work of) that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as He will (as many as He wants).
2 Corinthians 3:3-6 - Forasmuch as you are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart. And such trust have we through Christ toward God: not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; Who also has made us able ministers of the new testament (new covenant); not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter kills, but the spirit gives life.
Galatians 5:22-23 - But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
BECAUSE THE FATHER, THE SON, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT, HAVE CHOSEN TO GIVE US THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS, THE FAITH TO BELIEVE, AND THE WILL TO PLEASE HIM, SHOULDN'T WE MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO AVOID SIN, AND TAKE EVERY OPPORTUNITY TO SHARE THE GOOD NEWS THAT GOD LOVES US?
