Are you in Debt?

Today in America debt is on the rise, the American household debt hit a record of 16.9 trillion at the end of 2022 according to consumer debt statistics. Although there are many financial strategies and steps to get out of debt the majority of Americans will die with their debt. There is also another type of debt that the majority of people can never pay off and that is spiritual debt. Dying with spiritual debt is damning.

2 Thessalonians 2:12 – That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

Spiritual debt is our sin, we are all sinners (For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God, Romans 3:23). We have transgressed God’s law, and in response to this God has extended to us grace through his only begotten Son Jesus. Jesus gave his life to pay for our debt (sin). For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord (Romans 6:23). As mentioned before there are many strategies to get out of financial debt, but with spiritual debt God’s only strategy is Jesus.

John 3:16-17 – For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.{17} For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.{18} He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

You must believe to be saved. Jesus gave His life for us to be saved.

Romans 10:9 – That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

Let’s Recap:

1) It is great to be out of financial debt, but being out of financial debt does not compare to being out of spiritual debt.

2) If you die with your financial debt, your debt dies with you. If you die with your spiritual debt, you are damned and will reap the consequences of your sin. Hell.

3) If you are in spiritual debt today only God’s strategy will lead you to freedom.

The best part about being spiritually out of debt is you will never be in debt again. Jesus paid our debt in full. (For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified, Hebrews 10:14).

Thank you, JESUS!
