Wages of Sin
The world's population has toppled seven billion and
Many are dying each day, but more are being born.
There is a number totaling from beginning till now, and
Whatever that number is, it also carries a load of debt.
It is a debt because every human being has committed sin,
And sin had a humongous price tag which had to be paid.
The wages of sin is eternal death and none was able to pay
Such a price covering the wages of such vast numbers of people.
The estimated number of people ever born is 108,470,690,115.*
Since it was impossible for any creature to pay, God granted a gift.
Out of pure undeserving love, God gave the gift of his son whose death
Remedied the problem of sin for all people of all time and all eternity.
Most things that sound too good to be true are really not true, but in this case it is absolutely too good to be true. Nevertheless, without question, without, strings, it is absolutely true**
