3 Gifts Only in Christ

Salvation - 
-Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life.  No one comes to the Father except through me." (John 14:6)
-Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (John 3:36)
-And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. (Acts 4:12)

Hope - 
-Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. (Hebrews 10:23)
-Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ!  According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead (1 Peter 1:3)
-For in this hope we were saved.  Now hope that is seen is not hope.  For who hopes for what he sees?  But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience (Romans 8: 24-25)

Purpose - 
-Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.  And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age. (Matthew 28: 19-20)
-The heart of man plans his way, but the LORD establishes his steps. (Proverbs 16:9)


Rejoice always, pray without ceasing,
give thanks in all circumstances;
for this is the will of God
in Christ Jesus for you.
