No one comes to Christ except through the Father

(Audio: Spanish)

SUMMARY: The speaker reflects on James 1:17-18 and emphasizes the goodness of God and his gracious character, stating that God does not do evil or tempt anyone. He also discusses the idea of the new birth, which comes from God and transforms individuals when they accept Christ as Savior. The speaker emphasizes the extreme presence and activity of God in the entire process of salvation and reminds listeners that salvation is a gift from God and not a right. The message concludes with a call to thank and adore God for his mercy and grace.

I want to dedicate my meditations to him and base them on the book of Santiago, continuing from where we left off last Wednesday. You will remember in verse 17 of chapter 1 it says that every good gift and every perfect gift descends from above, from the Father of Lights in whom there is no change or shadow of variation.

We said that James was defending the character of God, that God does not tempt anyone, God does not trip people up so that they stumble as suggested in the previous verses, but on the contrary, what God does is give us good things , good gifts.
