You Can Be DEBT FREE!

You are in debt to God. Friend, you are in debt to God. The Bible says, "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:" (Romans 3:10). "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" (Romans 3:23). Your debt to God must be paid. Only death can pay your debt. The Bible says, "(23)For the wages of sin is death; .... (12)Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:" (Romans 6:23a; 5:12). Therefore you must pay the wages due for your sin, which is death. This is more than just physical death. The Bible says, "The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God." (Psalm 9:17) "And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death." (Revelation 20:14) After you die, the payment for sin has only just begun, and you will pay the debt of sin for all eternity. The Bible asks, "Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?" (Isaiah 33:14c) Someone has already paid your debt. Yes, Friend, because of God's great love for you, He has paid your debt! "But God

commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8) It is your debt, and you are responsible for its payment, but out of His pure love and mercy, Jesus paid it all. He died on the cross and shed His blood to pay your debt of sin! "In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:" (Colossians 1:14). Jesus Christ did not stay in the grave, but arose, proving He is God. His resurrection is our guarantee that the payment is good for all eternity: "Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them." (Hebrews 7:25) You must claim the payment for yourself. Jesus Christ died to pay the debt of sin for everyone, but not everyone has claimed the payment. Have YOU? You must claim His payment for your debt by faith. Faith is complete trust in Christ. To escape burning forever in the lake of fire, you must trust Jesus Christ and the payment He made on the cross. "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) The Lord Jesus Christ said, "I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish."   (Luke 13:3)

Are you willing to turn away from your sin and let Him become the Lord of your life? "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."   (Romans 10:9) "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."   (Romans 10:13) The decision is yours. The payment for sin is final. Your eternity depends on it. "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him."   (John 3:36) Please write to us to let us know that after reading this tract, you have decided to trust Jesus Christ as your Saviour.
