who gave himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been witnessed to at the proper time.
Ephisians 1:7
In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of Our Heavenly Father.
Lesson:
Redemption is an essential concept in many religions, including Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The term implies that something has been paid for or bought back, like a slave who has been set free through the payment of a ransom. Redemption is the buying back of something. You might try for redemption by attempting to buy back a bike you sold, or you might attempt to buy back your soul after you steal someone else’s bike.Jesus paid the price for our release from sin and its punishment (Matthew 20:28; 1 Timothy 2:6). His death was in exchange for our life. In fact, Scripture is quite clear that redemption is only possible “through His blood,” that is, by His death. The streets of heaven will be filled with former captives who, through no merit of their own, find themselves redeemed, forgiven, and free. Slaves to sin have become saints. No wonder we will sing a new song—a song of praise to the Redeemer who was slain.Christians believe that all people are born into a state of sin and separation from God, and that redemption is a necessary part of salvation in order to obtain eternal life. Leon Morris says that “Paul uses the concept of redemption primarily to speak of the saving significance of the death of Christ.”Having hope, finding redemption, signifies that we have reached a state where we can actively make better choices. We can make choices that will shake up our current conditions by giving us something to pursue and helping us move forward again REDEMPTION is a popular literary theme that’s closely tied to TRANSFORMATION. The latter is about evolving from a flawed being to someone better.
