God Receives True Gifts ㅡ

 “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.” (Romans 12:1).

Let there be no great ambitious stress to buy presents for Christmas and New Year’s.

Little presents for the children may not be amiss, but the Lord’s people should not spend His money in buying costly presents.

Christ calls for the greatest of all gifts—the gift of the heart, the mind, the soul, the strength.

God requires the service of the whole heart.

Those who place themselves in right relation to God will stand the test of the judgment.

If the heart, mind, soul, and strength are looked upon as the Lord’s blood-bought heritage, He will use them in His service.

Those who obtain eternal life must give evidence to the world that they love God with all the capabilities that He has given them.

They are to obey the two supreme commands, which embody all the whole law, acknowledging by their course of action that they are doers of the law.
