Colossians

Christ Died: To Pay Our Spiritual Debt (Colossians 2:14)

Our spiritual debt was nailed to the cross, as stated in Colossians 2:14. Sin makes us indebted to God, creating a burden we cannot repay on our own. The wages of sin is death, as Romans 6:23 teaches, meaning the consequence of sin is separation from God and eternal death. But Christ died to pay down this debt for all who trust and follow Him, offering us complete forgiveness through His sacrifice. Having been forgiven much, let us respond by loving Christ much.
