God s Word tells us of the penalty of sin.
Sin comes with a great penalty.
God is holy. He must, and will, punish all sin. Death is not just the ceasing of life, it is separation from God, physically, spiritually and eternally. Sin and spiritual death separate us from God, rendering impossible any human attempt to satisfy His righteous demands. Unlike colleg e, where exams, courses and programs are earned through personal achievement, we cannot earn eternal life.
