Our Gift From God Is Eternal Life

"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23

The wage of sin is death, yet for us, there is now no death, because for us, there is now no sin. Jesus has removed us from death unto life! “Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life; he that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die. Believest thou this? John 11:25-26 We have been given the gift of God and His gift is glorious and His gift is victorious and His gift is eternal! We shall abide with God forever and He will never leave us or forsake us, “..for He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.” Hebrews 13:5 Though we were dead, we live, and we live abundantly, as our Lord Jesus lives abundantly! We now eternally live unto to God and through Christ we are eternally free from sin, just as our Lord lives unto to God and is free from sin! As Jesus died unto sin once, so have we! “For in that He died, He died unto sin once: but in that He liveth, He liveth unto God. Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:10-11 Sin has lost all dominion and power over us, because we have now yielded to God, and we have been freed from all of the ordinances and all of the laws that were contrary to us, so that through Christ we might live under grace! “For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.” Romans 6:14 “Being then made free from sin, ye became servants of righteousness.” Romans 6:18
