| Sculpture called "Addiction" in Amsterdam: Shalimar Asmar/Archeology and Civilizations: Facebook. Awesome artwork in conjunction with the background scenery. My dear Facebook friend, ACG, posts funny things he hears while commuting. Well, I heard this talk the other day while walking home from downtown Maple Ridge (paraphrased): Downtown, perhaps street people... Man: Yes it is $18 dollars an hour, do you want to join me?

English Standard Version/ESV
Romans 5: 10
For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.
Romans 6:20-22
20 For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness. 21 But what fruit were you getting at that time from the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death. 22 But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the fruit you get leads to sanctification and its end, eternal life.
There is a type of freedom in sin, in one's thoughts, acts and actions, due to significant ignorance of the gospel and God's law, but that life does end in spiritual death (besides the physical death we all experience) and negative, divine judgment (Revelation 20-22).
