We grew up on the statement "The best things in life are free". This phrase is coined on the premise that Love is free and indubitable. Perhaps the love of your parents, spouse, or children is love that you have assurance of, and makes you appreciate the generous benefits of unconditional affection, appreciation and security. However, that is not the case for everyone. Not everyone can count on love from their parents, spouse, or even children. That is not a reality for a lot of people.
Salvation from God is the only thing in life that is free. This is an unmerited and underserved favor from God that promises eternal life. Many people live under the misconception that if you anger or disobey God, you lose your salvation. God is gracious enough to forgive our sins by our confession. Jesus paid the price for your FREE pass to eternal life- a life of ABUNDANCE, at that. What we owe to God could never be repaid. The wonderful "saved" lives that we live are compliments of Christ the King himself. Remember that only what you do for Christ will last.
