Salvation: God Gave the Greatest gift of All (REGENERATION)
Series: Have you opened your gift?
John Barnett
Titus 3:5
This year we are going to be focused as a church body upon CONNECTION--to Christ in Salvation and to Each Other in Ministry. Tonight we are continuing to look at our connection to Christ in salvation, the only gift everyone really needs.

For example, if part of the liver is cut away, the remaining portions increase in size to compensate for the missing tissue and to restore the normal functional capacity of the organ.
Of all vertebrates, amphibians have the most highly developed capacity for regeneration. Certain species have the ability to regenerate not only limbs and tails but also parts of the eye, lower jaw, intestine, and heart.
