THE THREE GREATEST GIFTS

JAMES 2:16-18

 

Pastor Rick Jackson

 

Every good gift is from God. Think about that. Every single solitary thing you ever have gotten came from God. It doesn’t matter who or what God used to deliver it, if it was good, truly good, it was from God. Then it says every perfect gift is from God. Now there are many, many good gifts that God has given us… but the number of perfect gifts is relatively smaller. Every good gift is not a perfect gift but every perfect gift is a good gift. Of the good and perfect gifts let us see the greatest three, and as God would have it, they are closely related.

 

I. THE BIBLE IS A PERFECT GIFT

 

1. It Converts the Soul [Ps. 19:7, 1 Peter 1:23]

 

2. It Completes the Saint [2 Tm. 3:16-17]

 

3. It Conveys the Solutions [James 1:21-25]

 

II. THE SAVIOUR IS A PERFECT GIFT

 

1. He Always Has Been [Dt. 32:1-4, 1 Cor. 10:1-4]

 

2. He Always Will Be [Col. 1:27-28, Heb. 13:8]

 

3. He Always Helps Others [Heb. 5:4-10, 10:1-14]

 

III. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS A PERFECT GIFT

 

1. God Gives Better Gifts than Sinful Men [Lk. 11:13]

 

2. God Gives the Holy Spirit to all Believers [Acts 2:38, Rm. 8:8-17]

 

3. The Holy Spirit Gives Spiritual Gifts [I Cor. 12:1-11, Rm. 12]
