Romans Chapter 6
IN THIS LESSON
Here comes a famous verse: “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Have you seen sin leading to death? Or have you seen people receiving eternal life in Christ Jesus? Does Paul allude to heaven or hell in outer space or under the earth? If not, what is eternal life—or more accurately, “the life of the ages to come” (Rom. 6:23)?
