Monday evening we watched a movie about Nate Saint and Jim Elliot, they were men who made an effort to reach a tribe of natives with the Gospel. In the end these men gave their lives while trying to reach this tribe with the Gosple of Jesus Christ. There was one phrase out of this movie that probably all of us will remember, "My father's life was not taken, he gave it."

(this was the son taking about his father who had given his life so the natives could hear the Gospel)

It is interesting to find that the Hebrew word for Love means "give" or "to give". Nate Saint and Jim Elliot gave their lives. . . God gave his Son.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16
