"Good News"
Scripture Reading:
Romans 6:23 (HCSBO) For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Devotion And Meditation:
Friday,
I gave you the bad news, so today, let me provide you with some Good
News: "The Gift of God is eternal life i Christ Jesus our Lord." It is
a gift, a free gift that cannot be earned nor deserved. We all
remember the excitement of opening gifts as children. around the
Christmas tree. We did not have to pay for those gifts. We did nothing
to earn them. We simply opened them and received them. A gift is the
opposite of a wage. We earn and deserve our wages. We don't earn or
deserve a gift. If we did, it would be a reward and not a git. How is
all this possible, we still have to deal with the bad news? Jesus made
the way possible by dealing with the bad news, Himself. 2000 years ago
on a Roman Cross Jesus took the bad news and became sin for us. He paid
the price, so we can finish the verse and enjoy the Good News. What a
difference there is in these two bits of news. The bad news is that sin
is costly, and it has a wage attached to it. The Good News is that
eternal life is free. It's God's git to us.
Galatians 2:20
