Title: Lets Go Shopping!
Passage: Luke 1:26-33
God is in the giving business:

• God gave the Israelites possession of the land flowing with milk and honey.
• God gave prophets to plead with His people and tell them of amazing things to come.
• God gave the Scriptures to prophesy of a Messiah who would come to deliver and save.
• God gave the shepherds a pronouncement by the angels that Jesus was born.
• God gave the Wise Men a star to lead them to the young Child with their gifts.
• God gave Joseph the patience to understand the strange circumstances of a virgin with child.
• God gave the world the Prince of Peace.
• God gave Jesus the place of sinners on the cross to bear the sorrow and shame, and Jesus gave his life for sinners. God offers to give all men the pardon for their sins that they might know the joy of everlasting life.
This morning I want to help you with your Christmas shopping and I want to talk to you about God’s great Christmas gift to us.
I. Personal Gift.

- Romans 6:23
III. Permanent Gift.
