They were greatly astounded and said to one another, ‘Then who can be saved?’ Jesus looked at them and said, ‘For mortals it is impossible, but not for God; for God all things are possible.’
---- mine,
Who can be saved? The one who desires to be saved, yet not all desire it because they are unaware of the consequences of sin. This is the great and most effective lie that the evil one propagates - as long as you are not hurting anyone it's ok. Every sin wounds the heart of God. The God you wound with your sins, the God to whom you show complete indifference as you wallow in the culture of the world, is the same God who was crucified for love of you. I paid your debt because you had no means of paying it. My crucifixion and death paid the price for your redemption. The debt you owe God can only be repaid by love.
