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"
And so, we see how some Christians say the faith of Jesus is not the gift of God,a nd so reject His faith found written in Scripture.
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.
What is not of ourselves is the faith of Jesus that saves, nor our own works by our own faith. The faith of Jesus is the gift of God that saves by His grace.
Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference.
Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
By rejecting the faith of Jesus as the gift of God to be saved by, the Christians by their own faith alone, therefore also reject Jesus as the gift of God to the whole world:
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.
They choose their own faith to save themselves by, and receive not the faith of Jesus written in Scripture, nor the Jesus Christ of Scripture as the only true God and Savior.
