Romans 6:22

http://www.dailybiblestudy.org

 

22 But [de] now [nuni] being made free [eleutheroo] from [apo] sin [hamartia], and [de] become servants [douloo] to God [theos], ye have [echo] your [humon] fruit [karpos] unto [eis] holiness [hagiasmos], and [de] the end [telos] everlasting [aionios] life [zoe].   KJV-Interlinear

 

22 But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the fruit you get leads to sanctification and its end, eternal life.  ESV



The phrase, everlasting life, stands in stark contrast to the word for, death, from the previous verse. Both terms stand for equal duration.

Everlasting life, by definition, means eternal life.

And by the same token, death of an equal duration, means eternal death.

Those who obey the terms for life, receive the gift of eternal life.

Those who are disobedient to the terms for life, receive the curse of eternal death.

The terms for life, come by way of faith. The terms for death, reject faith, and depend entirely on the works of the individual.

The works of the individual, are wrapped up in the concept which we call sin. This is mans effort to achieve his own salvation, by means of his own work, presuming that God will accept mans effort.

Salvation by faith, rejects man’s work, and accepts only Gods work.

Therefore, eternal death, which is based on the rejection of faith, results solely from the effort of mans works.

Since Jesus Christ went to the cross and paid the price for all sin, then sin having been paid in full, is not the basis for eternal condemnation. However, mans rejection of faith, means that he is relying on the effort of sin, which is human works, and that becomes the basis of eternal condemnation.

The two contrasting methods for obtaining salvation, are mans works, and Gods works.

Faith relies on Gods work, for which man receives no credit, but is the means of salvation as a gift from God to man, and is received by man by means of faith.

The fruit, or production, as it were, of faith, is eternal life.

The fruit, or the production of the sin nature, as it were, is eternal condemnation.

Just as eternal life is eternal and permanent, and not temporary, so too, eternal condemnation is not temporary, but is permanent.





These studies, are a part of the massive daily study web site at DailyBibeStudy.Org, that is easily accessible, and are written, so that you can come to Christ if you have not done so already, and therefore not be lost forever.

And if you have already believed in Christ, then these studies are written so you can learn and understand and grow in your spiritual life, so that you can come to the full knowledge of Christ, so that you can fulfill your meaning and purpose in life as God intended for you, and so you can qualify for a phenomenal eternal reward which you will have forever.

To ignore this opportunity to pursue a daily study means you will be incomplete, unfulfilled and you will lose out, big time.

The Daily Bible Study is online, making it possible as never before in all of human history, to advance in ones relationship with God, through Christ, and to complete yourself beyond your imagination.

But you have to decide to make that commitment. No one else can study for you. You have to do that yourself.
