The way is now open to have Eternal Life. With our sins paid for, there is nothing to separate us from God. Jesus Christ settled the debt of sin against us. When Jesus Christ was on the cross, God the Father poured out the sins of the world on Christ and judged them. Anyone can have Eternal Life through a simple act of faith.
Salvation is received by believing in Jesus Christ, and nothing else.
For by grace you have been saved, and this not from yourselves. It is the gift from God. The Problem of Spiritual Death Mankind is born into this life spiritually dead and separated from God. At the moment of birth God judges us with Adam's original sin, which leaves us spiritually dead. Spiritually dead people cannot communicate with God because God is a Spirit.
