Sin Has Inevitable Consequences

What seems to always be difficult for the unbeliever to accept at full face value is this: the eternal fact that sin has inevitable consequences. There is Holy Law written into the very nature and fabric of the entire universe.

Make no mistake about it. God is love. Those of us who have experienced His mercy, grace, and redemption can fully and joyfully attest to this fact. However, there is one thing that the Lord unilaterally and viscerally hates => and that is sin. He will not compromise his Holy Law. His glory He will share with none other. Sin has inescapable consequences. That’s just the way it is. Like it or not. God doesn’t just obey Holy Law. HE IS the embodiment of Holy Law.

What is sin? Sin is the opposite construct of love. In no uncertain terms, God condemns what conflicts with love. We have been created as free-willed sentient beings. Our actions have consequences. As mortal human beings though, we are unable to pay the high price that sin exacts. “The wages of sin is death.”

In unbelievably SELFLESS fashion, God has provided a way of escape though. The Father sent his son, Jesus, to die on the cross on our behalf. The perfect (sinless) Jesus died for each and every one of us. The immortal gave His life for the mortal, paying off the debt of sin that had to be paid. It was a sacrifice of such divine and infinite proportion that it can never be fully appreciated by the human mind. Praise His Holy Name Forevermore. {finis}

Yours In His Name,
