According to the Bible, the penalty or the price
of sin is spiritual death and separation from God. No amount of
good deeds can possibly atone for the wrong we've done in our lives
and buy Heaven for us. As one songwriter put it, "I owed a
debt I couldn't pay. Jesus paid a debt He didn't owe." In other
words, He stepped up to the cross and paid the price of our forgiveness
with His own life. Like the Lear jet, if you have to pay for it
yourself, pay for your forgiveness as justice demands, you'll
never attain it. Jesus paid the ultimate price and offered you a
gift---impossible or free---those are your only options.
