CHRISTMAS – The Greatest Gift – JESUS !
How should we Celebrate Christmas? Receive the Gift, Give the Gift
James 1:17 reminds us, “Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow.” NASB
Jesus did not just come to be a baby that was adored, but He came to be a perfect savior who is worshiped and died on the cross for our sins. Jesus is the gift of Christmas!
During this Thanksgiving and Christmas season let’s look for opportunities to share the gift of Jesus, share the Gospel. People are often more open to the gospel during the holidays.
We are so excited to have the John 3:16 Cards available for ministry. This simple plastic card is a great tool for sowing seeds of the Gospel and starting gospel conversations.
This John 3:16 card is like a Swiss Army knife with so many different ministry tools involved in the one card.
For example on the front of the card is the most famous verse in the Bible. John 3:16 is explained word and phrase by phrase. John 3:16 is the Gospel in a nutshell and really what Christmas is all about.
The back of the card is loaded with useful tools and websites: A prayer of salvation, LRBA.net, ViewTheStory.com, findithere.com, 1-888-NEED-HIM plus a contact area that you can personalize.
Only heaven will reveal the incredible impact that a simple tool like the John 3:16 card can have on eternity as we faithfully share these cards and engage people in Gospel sharing conversations.
I hope and pray that all of our churches will use this tool to spread the gospel all over our county and associational area! Christmas is a wonderful time of the year to share the gift of Jesus and to invite people to receive the gift of Jesus!
One simple way to use this card is to give it to someone in the checkout line or a drive-through or with the tip and just simply say to the person … “Here is a card that has the most famous Bible verse John 3:16 and a prayer on the back. I hope it encourages you today."
This simple introduction can turn into incredible conversations for sharing the gospel.
