God is generous in Common Grace
God’s generosity encourages us
Our Generosity encourages others.
God’s Generosity leads to worship
Thanks is the word “charis” or grace- here it is used as an expression of gratitude
Gift is “dorea” It is used 11 times in the Bible and EVERY TIME it is a gift that God is giving… salvation… the Holy Spirit.... heaven… And in this case I believe it Jesus Himself, the source of all of God’s Gospel Gifts!
But let me focus on one final word
Indescribable…
When I am studying what a word in the Bible means I like to look at other places where it us used.... but this word is unique..
It is not used anywhere else in the Bible… and that is pretty important.
When Paul wanted to get us thinking about How Big God’s Gift of Jesus was, he used a word to describe the indescribable that is so unique it only shows up once in the whole Bible.
I believe that as Paul really contemplated the truly extraordinary gift of God giving His Son, the more he thought about it the more it welled up in his heart until this expression of praise shouted from His mouth.
How do we describe what God has done in sending His Son?
When the Father longed to show
The love He wanted us to know
He sent His only Son and so
Became a holy embryo
Chorus
That is the Mystery
More than you can see
Give up on your pondering
And fall down on your knees
No fiction as fantastic and wild
A mother made by her own child
A hopeless babe who cried
Was God Incarnate and man deified
Because the fall did devastate
Creator must now recreate
So to take our sin
Was made like us so we could be like him
