Receiving The Gift

Jun 18, 2023

Passage: James 1:16-27

Preacher: Rob Holster

Series: The Rules of Following Jesus

Summary:

As we press on in chapter 1 of James this week, we'll discover that every good gift–including salvation and the indwelling Holy Spirit–comes from the Father of Lights–our Father in heaven. These gifts affect our lives in various ways–but the biggest and best gift is the new life we have in Jesus Christ. The rest of life is all about receiving that gift. Because although we're given the gift, we must receive it–open it and use it and discover the joy it holds. I've titled this series, The Rules of Following Jesus–and these rules can be called many things. Perhaps another way to look at them is how we might properly receive the gift of God in Jesus Christ. How do we enjoy and maximize that gift? We'll look at three different ways as we finish up chapter 1. These are really great rules for life in Christ that we should discover and use, for they are the keys to joyfully walking with Christ in this crazy world we live in.
