For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord Romans 6:23.
Right from the beginning after God created the first man - Adam, man disobeyed God, and the consequence of Adam’s rebellious act was death to Adam and the entire human race (Romans 5:12). This is simply because sin gives birth to death – Adam’s sin led to the death of mankind. In addition, the book of Romans 6:23 made it clear that the wages of sin is death. In other words, death is payment for our sins – we earn it.
Based on God’s standards of justice, we have all sinned and are actually heading to eternal separation from God, which is Hell – “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” Romans 3:23, “And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire” Revelation 20:12.
But, God provided a way for us to be saved and avoid eternal condemnation in Hell after we depart from this world. That is by providing His only begotten son Jesus Christ to pay for our sin. Once we repent of our sin and accept Jesus Christ as Lord and saviour, we will be saved and pass from death to eternal life. If you would like to accept Jesus Christ into your heart, please kindly say the following prayers and confession and mean it in your heart:
“Lord Jesus, I believe you died for me and that God raised you from the dead. Please forgive all my sins. I choose to turn away from them now and I ask you to come into my heart and life as my Lord and Saviour.”
