For God So Loved, He Gave!
Mike Fritscher, pastor

For God So Loved He Gave! For the Church So Loved She Gave!

John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.”

Romans 8:31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us? 32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him over for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things?

The Things We Withhold – The Things We Love!

1.  Our Money!
Annanias and Sapphira – Acts 5:1-6
1 Timothy 6:6-10; 17-19

2.  Our Things!
The Rich Young Ruler! Matthew 19:16-26

3.  Our lives – Our Relationships!

Luke 14:25 Now large crowds were going along with Him; and He turned and said to them, 26 " If anyone comes to Me, and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be My disciple.

Hebrews 11:17-19

Genesis 22:1-18

1. Abraham Offered the Most Important Thing In His Life! He Gave Sacrificially!
2. Abraham Would Withhold Nothing From God!

For Stephen so Loved He Gave! Acts 6:1-6;8-15 & Acts 7:54 -
