The gift of God is not faith. The Gift of God is the Cross of Christ that is the only SALVATION that God offers, that is the "GIFT of Salvation"
No cross is a gift to any man.
The cross of Jesus was not a gift to Himself, nor to any man that He would wish it upon.
The blood Jesus shed on His cross gives the gift of forgiveness of past sins, when confessed unto repentance.
And our cross we take up and bear is not a gift given to us, but is our necessary burden to bear in crucifying our old life of sin.
The reason some Christians say such unscriptural things, is because they don't care about the faith of Jesus given to us in the Scriptures, because they don't care about what is written on paper by any man, whether prophet or apostle, because they only care about what they say about their own salvation and justification by their own faith foolish alone.
