What would you pay for salvation?

every answer is wrong. Christ pays

1/ God does what? (Psalm 103:2-5)

Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
      who forgives all your iniquity, 
      who heals all your diseases, 
      who redeems your life from the pit, 
      who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, 
      who satisfies you with good so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s. 

2/ Encouragement from the Ancient Fathers

Gregory of Nazianzus, Against the Arians:

“Where are they that judge the church by number and despise the little flock, who measure the divinity with measure and place the people so high, who place sand high and despise the light of the world, who collect mussels and despise pearls? They have the houses, we the inhabitants—they have the churches, we God; yea we are the temple of the living God, a living sacrifice, a spiritual burnt-offering. They have the people, we have the angels; they audacity and daring, we the faith; they threats, we prayers; they gold and silver, we the pure doctrine of the faith."

[HT: Tim Pauls]
