Featured The greatest gift given to humanity

Is anything that God created equal to Himself?

 

Eternal life is also spoken of the "gift of God" in John 4.

10 Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.”

11 “Sir,” the woman said, “you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where can you get this living water? 12 Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did also his sons and his livestock?”

13 Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, 14 but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”

 

Yes, but would answer hebrews 1"1-2 as God ultimate revelation to us is not in the Bible, but in His Son!

 

Salvation by faith as a gift of God is described in Ephesians 2:8

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God.

So once again, eternal life (salvation) is called the gift of God.

 

We love and worship Jesus, but not His bible!

 

You are using human reasoning again. By referencing the London Baptist Confessions of 1689 you are appealing to human writings.

Before there was a Bible available it was known that the gift of God is eternal life.

 

I took the poll, and answered 2, as in Jesus as my Savior, and the Holy Spirit for granting to me that eternal life in Christ!

 

I can respect and delight in the Bible, but my love is Due only unto God in the ultimate sense!

 

John 5:39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.

Jesus sacrifice was the greatest gift. Without Him, The Bible would be a mere history book

 

Christ gift to us is eternal life... Gods gift to us is Christ!... Brother Glen

John 6:38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.

6:39 And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.

And this one should be familiar Tony as you had a recent OP on it!

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

 

What is more important, the Savior or the book about The Savior?
No Sacrifice of Christ and The Bible would be worthless.
Without Jesus, we would not have anything to know about.

 

Without Christ and His salvation there would be no need for scripture. Salvation is spoken of, in scripture as a gift as ITL has exposed. Scripture is never described, in scripture as a gift.
