THE GRACE OF GOD
Ephesians : 2:8
"For by grace are ye saved "through faith; and that
not of yourselves:"
It is the gift of God: 2 Tim. 1:9, Rom.4:16, Matt.16:17.
"The wages of sin is death". As a result of man's sin, there are three
deaths. Keep in mind that death does not annihilate; it only separates. In the
Garden of Eden it separated man from God spiritually; this is spiritual death.
In natural death, it separates the spirit and the soul from the body; this is
physical death. In final death, it separates man from the mercy of God forever;
this is eternal death.
(1) The wages of sin is death. Just as sin separated man from
God spiritually and drove him from the presence of God out of the Garden, so sin
will separate you from God (Isa. 59:1,2) The only way back to God is to confess
your sin to Him (1 John 1:9), and forsake your sins (Isa. 55:7), that you may be
restored to fellowship with God.
(2) The wages of sin is physical death. Physical death is a
result of sin. Death had no claim on man until man sinned. Now all die, because
all are in sin. Death is universal, and since we have a universal effect, we
must have a universal cause, and that cause is universal sin. All men die-the
good and the bad-the young and the old-and man will continue to die until death
is destroyed by the Lord Jesus Christ (1 Cor. 15:26) and is swallowed up in
victory (1 Cor.15:15-57).
(3) The wages of sin is eternal death. "The soul that
sinneth, it shall die" (Ezek. 18:20). This is eternal separation from the
love of God Almighty (Rev. 20:14). Once the soul passes beyond the portal of
hell he is lost and lost for ever. He will continue to exist, but without hope.
He is damned and damned to all eternity. Eternal death is eternal separation
from our loving God (Luke. 16:19-31)
