SADLY, THIS THANKSGIVING, NOT EVERYONE CAN SAY:


BECAUSE:

John 3:16-17 - God so loved the world, that He gave His Only Begotten Son, 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.


AND BECAUSE:

1 Corinthians 15:1-4 - Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the Gospel (the soul-saving message of good news) which I (Paul) preached unto you, which also you have received, and wherein you stand; by which also you are saved, if you keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless you have believed in vain.  For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures; and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures....

Ephesians 2:4-9God, Who is rich in mercy, for His great love wherewith He loved us, even when we were dead in sins, has quickened us (made us live again) together with Christ, and has raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:  that in the ages to come, He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.  For by grace are we saved through faith; and that not of ourselves:  it is the gift of God:  not of works, lest anyone should boast.

1 John 3:1-2Behold, what manner of love the Father has bestowed upon us, that we should be called the children of God:  therefore, the world does not know us, because it does not know Him.  Beloved, now are we the children of God, and it does not yet appear what we shall be:  but we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is.


THEREFORE:

Psalm 69:30, 34; Revelation 5:12 - I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify Him with thanksgiving. . . . Let the heavens and the earth praise Him, the seas, and everything that moves therein. . . . Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb Who was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing.  AMEN!
