Your Uncle Sam must uphold his law and his right to govern. .And Just so, God must uphold his law. Lawbreakers must suffer. But God Is the Great Lover and how can he let any man go on out into eternal night the wages of sin? The answer Is that love found a way. He put your sins on Christ, who had no sin, and He was named the law breaker In your place. The penalty of the broken law was suffered by Christ. God's only-bom Son, you are cleared and the law upheld. Believe God's word, that Jesus paid it all and God elves vou eter nal life with the peace that passes understanding God makes you his new creation. This space Daid for bv on n. gon family.
