The Unpayable Debt
“Who gave Himself for our sins...” Galatians 1:4
Years ago King Charles V was loaned a large sum of money by a
merchant in Antwerp. The note came due, but the king was bankrupt
and unable to pay. The merchant gave a great banquet for the King.
When all the guests were seated and before the food was brought in,
the merchant had a large platter placed on the table and a fire lighted
on it. Then, taking the note out of his pocket, he held it in the flames
until it was burned to ashes. The king threw his arms around his
benefactor and wept. Just so, we have been mortgaged to God. The
debt was due, but we were unable to pay. Two thousand years ago
God invited the world to the Gospel feast, and in the agonies of the
cross, God held your sins and mine until every last vestige of our guilt
was consumed.
