Question 507

By: Robert Serreyn

Question? What is the Measure of the gift of Christ found in Ephesians 4:7?

Ephesians 4:7 But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

Answer:

The Measure of the gift of Christ is referring to the Talents and Skills that the Lord bestows on us in which to be intended to be used in serving him.

V11 of Chp. 4 is a good example which states…

And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers.

The Apostles and Prophets have past off the scene and NO LONGER for today, BUT the other three are in MUCH NEEDED DEMAND.

The MOST IMPORTANT thing to know IS Jesus Christ as savior, just simply believe that Jesus Christ went to the cross and DIED and shed his blood, was BURIED and three days later RESURRECTED from the dead to pay for your sins.

The moment that you do YOU HAVE (at that second and forever) Everlasting Life which WILL NEVER be taken away no matter what.

-Christ DIED for you – Romans 5:8

-Christ PAID your sins in full – 2 Corinthians 5:21,1 Peter 2:24

-BELIEVE (Trust In Completely) in Christ ALONE as the complete payment of sin for salvation – John 3:16, Acts 16:31, Ephesians 2:8,9

“For the wages(payment) of sin is death (eternal torment in hell); but the GIFT(salvation) of God is eternal life THROUGH Jesus Christ our Lord”. Romans 6:23

IT IS THAT SIMPLE – THE GOSPEL TRUTH
