“The wages of sin is death. The free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Days of darkness caused by sin are on the human time-line. The darkest being “Good Friday” when the sinless Son of God, the One worthy to fulfil God’s plan of salvation, was nailed to the cross. The sins of the world were laid upon Him as He suffered forsaken by Father. At the end Jesus prayed, “Father forgive them for they know not what they do.” Darkness was over the whole land as Jesus hung on the cross of crucifixion, the sun stopped shining. In His last words, “It is finished” the price of sin was paid so we could be forgiven.
“Why should I gain from His reward? I cannot give an answer; but this I know with all my heart – His wounds have paid my ransom.”
