| Now we are saved
by His grace, we are in Him. We are spared the judgement to come
and have been given the gift of eternal life. This free gift
is available to all, but not all accept it. Like a present wrapped and
with your name on it, it is available to all, but many people never
claim it. Some do receive the gift, say
thank you like we do for Christmas presents but never open it, never
read the instructions, or use it or apply it to their daily lives.
These people have received the
free gift but since they don’t use it, they don’t realize what
they have, for there is much more than salvation in the Christian Life. |
