The eternal verity of Romans 6:23 pierces the soul like a flaming arrow: "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." This godly ultimatum leaves no middle ground-every heartbeat, every breath, every moment of consciousness hurtles toward one of two eternities. The church's failure to proclaim sin's wages with urgency has lulled multitudes into spiritual complacency. Today, we sound the alarm with unflinching clarity: sin's paycheck is eternal death, and its payment is irrevocable.
