TOPIC: REDEEMED BY CHRIST
BIBLE TEXT: Colossians 1vs14 – In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins.
Hebrews 9vs12 – Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.
Beloved we owe everything we own, and all our lives to Christ. He alone went to the place angels could not, he reached the depths man could not, he paid the price, which money could not afford to pay. And shed his blood on the cross that animals blood could not atone neither any other man’s blood. What a great priviledge it is, that our redemption comes from the Son of righteousness, the Son of God.
Through the blood of Jesus, we obtained forgiveness of sins. That’s why God’s word says; “if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things (sins, mistakes and errors) are passed away (they are all dead and have no life again to torment us); behold, all things are become new. The purity of the blood of Jesus Christ made our lives brand new and now acceptable before God the Father in heaven.
The blood of Christ is the force of exchange that bought back our freedom from sin and hell, that’s why Apostle Paul wrote in col. 2vs14 – Blotting out (removing forcefully) the handwriting of ordinances (statements and decrees) that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it (crucifying it) to his cross (the place of freedom and victory). He went on to say in 1Corinthians 15vs55 – O death (birth from sin) where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? Sin has no more wins over us in Christ Jesus as long we abide in the righteousness of God. Let us be thankful to God for the gift of salvation, redemption and sanctification in Christ Jesus.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank you intentionally for buying me back with your holy blood thank you for paying the price.
Insight: And we overcame him (satan) by the blood of the lamb.
