"If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father who is is heaven give what is good to those who ask Him?" Mt. 7:11
Up close and personal this verse has spoken to countless ones whose parents have sacrificed in order to pass on to their children an inheritance of worth and value.
But as I thought of this truth I was reminded of the sacrifice God made to give His only begotten Son so that whosoever will may receive eternal life in heaven.
John 3:16 is known and quoted continually.
It speaks of the greatest gift, purchased by God, at the sacrifice of His only Son.
For the last twenty centuries whosoever will has been granted the privilege of receiving this gift of eternal life absolutely free of charge.
But do not make the mistake of thinking that because salvation is free it is cheap.
Nothing is more valuable than eternal life in heaven.
And it IS A GIFT OF LOVE.
From God to WHOSOEVER WILL RECEIVE IT.
