For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.- Romans 6:23
From the above text, it is clear a man can only reap what he sow.
The wages, fruits, or end product of sin is death. But, the end product of the gift God is offering us, is life eternal. Jesus Christ is the gift! He is God's gift to man, that through him we can approach the Father, 2 Corinthians 5:19.
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16.
Someone said, the greatest expression of love is giving. I believe this statement! God so loved us, He gave us his only begotten Son to prove his love towards us. If you claim to love Him(God), what are you giving in return to prove your love?
For example in Romans 12:1 the scripture says,
"I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye PRESENT YOUR BODIES A LIVING SACRIFICE, HOLY, ACCEPTABLE UNTO GOD, WHICH IS YOUR REASONABLE SERVICE."
You are to present your body, make it fit, so God can work through you in bringing His will to pass on earth as it is in heaven. Like Jesus did when he followed through God’s will, in redeeming man back to God, through the sacrifice of the cross. I am not saying, you will be crucified on the cross too. Christ Jesus already did that! But, there maybe a neighbor of yours, God want you to reach-out to, by sharing the gospel with him/her, or something else. Are you willing to say, "I am available, Lord, use me?" are you willing to be a vessel God can use?
In accepting His gift, and doing his WILL, is life eternal.
Well, I think I will stop here today, looking forward to hearing your testimonies.
