John 3:16<\/strong><\/p>\n

I: If I had the Money to Give, What I Would Like to Give.<\/strong>
\n1. If I could meet all the financial needs of family and friends.
\n2. If I could give material gifts without limit.
\n3. If I could feed all the hungry world.
\n4. If I had a Medical Clinic to heal all the lame, fault, and blind.
\n5. If I could restore all the Human Race to perfect health.
\nWhat Joy! But I don’t have.<\/p>\n

II: If I had the Power.<\/strong>
\n1. Calm the storm that tossed lives.
\n2. Bring peace to every troubled heart.
\n3. Believe the fears of death and life.
\n4. Reunite every broken home.
\n5. Bring peace to every battle field.
\n6. Beat every sword into plow shares.
\n7. Assure every man a way to heaven.
\n WHAT A GIFT! And I can through Christ.<\/strong><\/p>\n

III: “God Gave.”<\/strong>
\n1. His gift was not fancy wrapped.
\n2. Yet it was no secret — hundreds of years it was promised.
\n3. His gift brought the Choir of Heaven, to sing a song of peace to a troubled world.
\n4. It caused shepherds to leave their flocks, wise men to leave their homes, and a humble couple to lay their 1st born in a cradle of hay.
\n5. It divided homes, nations, and caused Wars.
\n6. It lifted the slave, healed the sorrows of man, broke down the walls of Separation.
\n7. In him was life, light, and love.<\/p>\n

IV: When Man Receives.<\/strong>
\n1. He becomes a child of God.
\n2. Old things pass away and all, things become new.
\n3. He finds peace with God and sees peace with all men.<\/p>\n
