Sin’s Payday
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Listen to the "Verse by Verse" episode covering this scripture.
We have all earned eternal death (Romans 3:23), but absolutely nothing we can do will earn us eternal life. It is a free gift God offers to those who humbly repent, showing that we understand the magnitude of our sin, and thankfully believe that God’s way is best (Acts 2:38; 8:37).
Desiring Jesus Christ to live in us and transform our lives is the only reasonable decision we can make when we are offered such a priceless gift (Galatians 2:20; Romans 12:1-2).
To learn more about the many deep truths found in this verse, read “What Is the Meaning of Romans 6:23?”
