Every time it was used by the authors, it was to describe an action, hence, it was never passive in its application. The following are instances where it was used: John 6:32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven. Notice his emphasis on the character of God; “...my Father giveth you” “...and giveth life unto” In verse 35, he explained the responsibility of the recipient - to receive what the Father has given by believing. God’s responsibility which was demonstrated by His character of love was to give his son, our responsibility is to receive by believing (John 3:16). John 3:16 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. The act that he died for the world does not translate automatically to the world having everlasting life. *Everlasting life is only received when a man believes*. Thus receiving is an activity that happens consciously. Believing is an activity that shows that there is a responsibility on the part of the recipient to receive what the Father gave in his son. Thus, when a man chooses not to receive (what God has given), it does not change the fact that God has already given. It also does not change the character of God as one who gives to all without finding fault.
