Thanksgiving 2014 Chesed Bible Fellowship Mike Christian, Pastor Thanksgiving 2014 • The meaning of Thanksgiving: • Thanksgiving is an expression of an inner recognition and acknowledgment of the grace of God in every area of one's life. • True thankfulness is something that proceeds out of the inner person, from the heart through the mouth. • Hebrews 13:15 ( NKJV ) Therefore by Him let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name. Thanksgiving 2014 • One of the Greek words for Thanksgiving is eucharisteÅ, from which we get the English word Eucharist - which is the sacrament of the Lord’s supper, or communion. • We will be partaking of communion as part of our Thanksgiving service.
