Redeemed by Christ
October 31, 2021

For The KingRocky Ramsey
Jesus has has done so many things by spilling his blood for us on the cross. Among those is that of redemption. Redeeming something entails paying a ransom to restore something to yourself but also at a cost to yourself, not because the thing is inherently worth it. There is an element of worth in the transaction but to God we are by no means worthy of the death of his son. It ought to humble ourselves into subjection to him.
Key Texts: Ephesians 1:7 ; Psalm 8
