The Ransom-God's Greatest Gift, Chapter Five

WHAT is the greatest gift you have ever received? A gift does not have to be expensive  to be important. After all, the true value of a gift is not necessarily measured in terms of money. Rather, when a gift brings you happiness or fills a real need in your life, it has great value to you personally. 

Of the many gifts you could ever hope to receive, there is one that stands out above all others.  It is a gift from God to mankind.  Jehovah has given us many things, but his greatest gift to us is the ransom sacrifice of his Son, Jesus Christ. (Matthew 20:28)  As we will see in this chapter, the ransom is the most valuable gift you could  possibly receive, for it can bring you untold happiness and can fill your most important needs.  The ransom is really the greatest expression of Jehovah's love for you.
