    Sermonettes 16
    Sin's Deadly Wages
    by Richard W. De Haan

    "The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Rom.6:16-23, KJV).

    The following story was often told by Charles Haddon Spurgeon:

      "A cruel king called one of his subjects into his presence and asked him his occupation. The man responded, "I'm a blacksmith." The ruler then ordered him to go and make a chain of a certain length.

      "The man obeyed, returning after several months to show it to the monarch. Instead of receiving praise for what he had done, however, he was instructed to make the chain twice as long.

      "When that assignment was completed, the blacksmith presented his work to the king, but was again commanded, "Go back and double its length." This procedure was repeated several times. At last the wicked tyrant directed the man to be bound in the chains or his own making and cast into a fiery furnace."

    Like that cruel king, sin exacts from its servants a dreadful price: "The wages of sin is death" (Rom.6:23). But the good news is the last part of that verse: "The gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord".

    If you are not a Christian, consider the consequence of your sin. Then "believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved" (Ac.16:31, KJV).

    Lord, give me courage to confess,
    To bare my sinful heart to thee;
    Forgiving love You long to show
    And from my sin to set me free.
