For The Wages Of Sin Long Sleeve T-Shirt
For The Wages Of Sin Long Sleeve T-Shirt
“For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” — Romans 6:23
The Wages of Sin Long Sleeve was designed around a truth that Scripture doesn't soften: sin has a cost.
At the center of this design is a vintage engraved skull surrounded by the words “FOR THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH” and the Scripture reference Romans 6:23. The weathered coin-inspired artwork gives the shirt a rugged, old-world appearance while carrying a message with eternal significance.
But the skull isn't the end of the story.
Romans 6:23 begins with death, but it ends with one of the greatest promises in Scripture:
“…but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
That's the heart behind this design.
We could never work our way out of the consequences of sin. We could never earn salvation. Jesus paid the price we couldn't pay and offers eternal life as a gift.
The distressed cream artwork was created specifically to contrast against the darker garment colors, allowing the color of the shirt to show through the design and giving each version a naturally vintage appearance.
It's bold enough to get noticed, but the purpose goes beyond the artwork. It's an opportunity to wear something that can lead to a conversation about sin, grace, redemption and Jesus Christ.
