Oregon The table was spread and one of the family thanked God for their daily bread. But why give thanks? Not because God has driven us into a fence corner and compelled us to be good. We give thanks because we are gra tified. God leaves us to lie, steal, curse. We are free to sin but sinful men are not God's riches His riches are such as do his will. It is not that we loved God but that he loved us and gave His Son to die for us. The one sin bet w*en you and God is the one sin of re jecting Christ as dying for you The blood of Je sus Christ, God’s Son, .cleanses from all sin. The one sin now between you and God is the sin of rejecting Christ as dying for you. Receive Christ into your heart as your own Lord and Sa viour and God gives you eternal life. Then by Bible and Prayer, grow up.
