Present is one of those words
that has two different meanings:
First Meaning:
It means a gift from one person to another.Slide5
Second Meaning:
It means that a person is here in the room.
Like a roll call at school. When your name is called, you answer, “present.”
Present is one of those words that has two different meanings:Slide6
First: Let’s look at
Our Present Jesus – The Gift
Did you know that Christmas really is about giving presents?Slide7
The true meaning of Christmas is that God freely gives wonderful presents to people, starting with giving His only Son, Jesus. Slide8
Jesus
is our
Heavenly
Father’s
Gift to
People:
'For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.'
John 3:16Slide9Slide10
“We
should thank God because of the very great gift that he has given to us. His gift is so great that no words could ever describe it
!”
2 Corinthians 9:15Slide11
With Jesus, God Gave Us Salvation…
A New Life
Forgiveness

“
And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
.”
Luke 2:7 Slide13
Jesus W
as Wrapped
Up Like a Present
Swaddling is an age-old practice of wrapping infants in bands of cloth so that movement of the limbs is tightly restricted. Slide14
“All
of God lives in Christ's
body.” Colossians 2:9
“So the Word became human and lived here on earth among us.“ John 1:14“But he gave up his place with God and made himself nothing. He was born to be a man and became like a servant.” Philippians 2:7
He was swaddled with more than cloth,
He was swaddled with humanity.Slide15
Many children rip off the
wrapping to reveal the
gift within.Slide16
The BODY of Jesus needed to be torn to reveal the gift of salvation for all.
“But
he was wounded for the wrong we
did; he was crushed for the evil we did… and we are healed because of his wounds.” Isaiah 53:5Slide17
Look for Our Present **Jesus** at the foot of a tree…
No, not this tree…Slide18
This Tree
When we humble ourselves, kneel at the foot of the cross and ask forgiveness for our sins, we can receive our gift.
“They
put him to death by hanging him on a
tree”
Acts 10:39Slide19
Jesus will never get
broken or
wear out
!
“Don’t store up treasures on earth! Moths and rust can destroy them, and thieves can break in and steal them.
Instead, store up your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy them, and thieves cannot break in and steal them.”Mat. 6:19-20Slide20
A Gift Must Be ReceivedSlide21
“
But
to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of
God.” John 1:12Slide22
Second Meaning:
It means that a person is here in the room.
Like a roll call at school. When your name is called, you answer, “present.”
Remember our second meaning of present?Slide23
Jesus is a Gift from God, but he is also ‘Our Present Jesus’ because He is right here with us
.
“The
Lord is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.” Psalm 145:18 “The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.” Psalm 34:18 Slide24Slide25

What is the Sinner‘s Prayer?
This is a prayer we can pray when we are ready to admit we are sinners and need Christ’s forgiveness.
It must be prayed with faith in our hearts and a readiness to have a life-changing encounter with Jesus Christ.Slide27Slide28
John Wesley’s Testimony
“…the preacher was describing the change which God works in the heart through faith in Christ and I felt my heart strangely warmed.”
Disciple’s Testimony
“They
said to each other,
‘Did
not our hearts burn within us while he talked to us on the road, while he opened to us the Scriptures
?’”Slide29
A prayer of faith
Pray this prayer if :
You want to set an example & show others how it is done
You just like to give your heart to Jesus again & again
If you never have beforeYou have in the past, but you think it
would mean more todayYou have been walking afar off and you want to come backFaithSlide30
We Declare Our Faith Publicly Because Jesus Declared His LOVE Publicly
“If you stand before others and are willing to say you believe in me, then I will tell my Father in heaven that you belong to me.”
Mat 10:32
Slide31
Do you want to meet Jesus as your savior right now?
Do you believe He died to save you from your sins & that He rose from the dead?
Do you believe that He is waiting to save you right now?
Dear Jesus
,
I know I am a sinner & need your forgiveness.I believe you died for my sins. I now turn from sin.Come into my heart I pray.Slide32
“But some people did accept him. They believed in him, and he gave them the right to become children of God.”
John 1:12
Slide33Slide34
What did you learn today?
What is the meaning of the name-tag?
What have you
neen
thinking about God lately?
What do you want to tell the world about Jesus?
“If you openly say, ‘Jesus is Lord’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from death, you will be saved.” Rom. 10:9 Slide35
“Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you…
…Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and make your hearts pure, you who are half-hearted towards God.”
James 4:8 WNTSlide36
