Have you ever heard anyone say Jesus paid the price for your sins? I guess you really didn’t know what that meant did you? The Bible says we are all sinners that are in need of a Savior.
“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,.” – Romans 3:23
As you can see, sin makes us fall short of God’s Holiness. God is a Holy and Just God and must punish sin. If He didn’t care about sin, He wouldn’t be so righteous would He? That is why He must punish sin. Sin is serious. It separates us from God Himself. But just because God punishes sin doesn’t mean He doesn’t love you!!!
“But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”
- Romans 5:8
See, God loves us even though we are sinners. The scriptures say Jesus paid the price of our sins while we were still sinners. God loves you even though you have rejected Him so many times. Sin has to be paid for. That is why Jesus died on the cross.
We deserved the punishment for our sins, but Jesus took our punishment.
"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.” - John 3:16
The price has been paid. If you believe this and want a relationship with God, then don’t live in sin another minute. Jesus is calling you. The Bible says:
“That if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; For with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.”- Romans10: 9-10
Please accept His payment for your sins. Don’t turn away and continue to live in sin. As the Bible says, sin will be punished, but you can have salvation.
“For "WHOEVER WILL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED." – Romans 10:13
