Bible verses on the wages of sin

Posted on June 27, 2012 Updated on June 26, 2012

 Romans 6:23:

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

everyone who works at one point or the other expects a reward. This reward could come in form of gifts, wages or salaries. The same goes for sin. Anyone who works for God gets his reward from God and anyone who works for sin also gets his reward thereby. The reward you receive however is an off shoot of your work.

1 Corinthians 3:8 “……….. and each one will receive his own reward according to his own labour.”

The reward you earn by working depends on the work you are engaged in. Sin came to the world by one man. Sin is evidenced in the works of the flesh.

“Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are :adultery,fornication,cleanness,lasciviousness,.Idolatary,witchcraft,hatred,variance,emulations,wrath,strife,seditions.Envyings,murders drunkenness, revellings and such like: of the which I tell you as I have told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of GOD.” (Galatians 5:19-21).

Sin has a reward and its reward is DEATH. Divine justice is under obligation to give sinners their wages. Anyone who engages in the works of sin will reap the reward of sin, which is eternal death. Repent and live forever.

Do you want to be reconciled with God, through Jesus the Lord and Saviour? Then say this simple prayer:

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ. I acknowledge that I am a sinner and have fallen short of your glory. I genuinely repent from all my sins and pledge to go and sin no more. I accept your plan to reconcile mankind to you through Jesus Christ, who you sent in your name.

I believe Jesus Christ is the Messiah, and died on the Cross to pay the penalty for my sins and redeem me. I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. I pray that His blood washes my sins away. I invite the Holy Spirit to rule my Life. I am born again in Jesus name.
