What does the Bible say about the wages of sin?

Answered in 13 sources

The Bible states that the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ (Romans 6:23).

Romans 6:23 explicitly declares that the wages of sin is death, which signifies the just punishment for our sins against God. This death is both spiritual and eternal, highlighting the serious consequence of transgressing God's holy law. However, the verse also offers hope, stating that the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. This emphasizes that while we deserve death for our sin, God offers a free gift of salvation through faith in Christ, who takes on our punishment.
