Redemption!

For Friday, July 1, 2022:

Romans 8:1-2 NLT: “Now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death.”

I think we’d have a better understanding of sin, judgment and heavenly eternity if there were some visible sin-sign. A lightning bolt in the sky would make us stop and say, “Whoops! I shouldn’t have done that!”

As is, many people disconnect sin from its penalty. Sin happens now, but the penalty comes much later, but with eternal consequences.

Forgiveness has been offered in advance by faith in our Savior Jesus Christ. By trusting him, we have been freed from sin’s consequences and given the gift of heaven.

Redemption is the best gift you’ll ever receive!
