“Wages of Sin-Jack Blake”
Categories: Blessings from God, Forgiveness, Good NewsGOOD MORNING,
By ONE man sin entered into the world, and DEATH by sin; and so DEATH passed upon all men, for that all have sinned. Romans 5.12. For all have sinned and fall short of God's glory. Romans 3.23, and the WAGES of sin is DEATH. But through Jesus the Christ our Lord, God has gifted us with eternal life. Romand 6.23. God commanded His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, CHRIST DIED FOR US. Romans 5.8. This gift from God is the gospel; given and enjoyed by all who have heard it preached receive it and stand by it.
By it we are saved, if we keep in memory this preaching of Christ and the Apostles, unless our belief is in vain. According to the scriptures, CHRIST DIED for our sins, was buried, and rose again the third day. See 1 Corinthians 15.1-4. By God's grace we are saved through our faith; not of ourselves it is THE GIFT of GOD; not of works lest any man should boast. See Ephesians 2.8,9. This is the testimony:that God has given us eternal life and this life is in His Son. If we have the Son, we have life, if we do not have the Son we have not life. Believe on the name of the Son of God. 1 John 5.11-13.
All emphasis are mine.
