PAID

Paid means to have satisfied a just obligation.
This debt or obligation, in the spiritual world, is a matter of life or death to every
human being. All people owe to Almighty God all they have and are, sin excepted, which
comes from Satan. God is their creator and redeemer, in whom they live, move and have
their being; while Satan is their seductive enemy, and has nothing to offer them but a few
passing sins of pleasure, ease and profit, after which an eternity where no pleasure, ease
and profit ever come; which is awful pay for sinning against God in a life of sin for
Satan. No spiritually sane person will be so used and abused by Satan, cheated out of
pleasures forever more, for a few abominable sins, which is shameful to use, even this
sinful world.
Jesus Christ, the creator, is he who came and died the death for every sinner who would
believe it, join in with him to overcome the world, the flesh and Satan. Those who refuse,
for any cause, to give God the pleasure to pay all their debts with such a price, will be
driven into hell, Ps. 9:17, for any other place would be torment for them, for their shame
in heaven would be as fire to them, Rev. 1:12-17. Do not parley with Satan, but flee from
him ere he makes you a vessel of wrath fitted for destruction, Rom. 9:22. Believe
God’s WORD, and your debts are PAID. Because I believed, God took my spirit, paid all
its debts, when I was eighteen years of age. "After I was baptized and while the
people were giving me the right hand of church fellowship. I appeared so happy, it caused
me to be saved:" said an old man in public sixty-nine years afterwards. He waited a
long time to tell the effect of my joy on him.
