God has made our salvation, not our punishment, to be his glory. He lets us run up charges on his grace, and he does not make us pay it back. He bears the loss himself so that we might go free. When the accounts of our lives are looked at, they are found wanting. Even among the best of us, all our good works amount only to a total wasting of the Father’s gifts to us. We have no personal credits to leverage when he summons us to bring the books. We are due debtors’ prison.
