Being offered a gift is not enough. A gift must be received for it to be
enjoyed. That is the promise underlying
this tract. What is clearly displayed is
that Jesus, Himself, is the gift. The
person of Jesus Christ needs to be received to be saved.

You need God’s Gift because you need a Savior. “All have sinned and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). “There is NO man that sinneth not” (I Kings 8:46). “The wages of sin is death (eternal separation from God)” (Romans 6:23).
Someday you must face a holy God in your sins—unless you find some way to remove them.
The Lord Jesus said, “Ye . . . shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come” (John 8:21).
If you try to earn or merit forgiveness and favor with God (which you can’t), you will never be sure you are saved, for how can you know that you are good enough and religious enough?
There is a better way! It is “Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us ...” (Titus 3:5).
God, in His grace and mercy, wants to give you His salvation by giving you His Son.
“For God so loved the world, that HE GAVE His Only Begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16).
Paul wrote in II Corinthians 9:15, “Thanks be unto God for His unspeakable Gift.” When He was just a baby, God’s Gift was called His “Salvation.” (See Luke 2:30).
God’s Gift, born of the virgin Mary, lived a perfect life and then gave His blood on the cross as wicked men nailed Him up to die.
But He rose from the grave, that He might be your Lord and Savior. He lives as “the man Christ Jesus” (I Timothy 2:5) in that same body of flesh and bones in which He was crucified and buried.
See Luke 24:34-43. Note our Lord’s Own words, “flesh and bones.” He is the same person now, Who came forth from the virgin’s womb, and once lay in Joseph’s tomb!
God says, “As many as received Him (the Lord Jesus) to them gave He power (the right or the authority) to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name” (John 1:12).
You MUST receive Him to have eternal life. “He that hath THE SON hath life” (I John 5:12).
It is possible to shun a gift—to reject it. If you refuse God’s Gift, you do so to your peril, for “He that hath not the Son of God hath NOT life” (I John 5:12).
Receive Him today! Just tell Him, in your own words, that you know you are a lost, guilty sinner, and that you receive Him as your Lord and Savior, and that you trust Him to forgive your sins and give you eternal life.
What a tragedy it would be to refuse God’s Gift! What a privilege to receive Him by faith. So take Him NOW and then believe in and rejoice in His promise found in John 6:47: “He that believeth on Me hath everlasting life.”
