Christ Crucified

God afternoon to all it’s a beautiful sunny day here in Sun Lakes Arizona 96°
Having obtained eternal redemption for us – That is, by the shedding of Jesus Christs blood. On the meaning of the word “redemption,” Galatians 3:13. This states that Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law. By the shedding of his blood which is the finished work of the cross. Of which (Must be established that faith in that finished work must be adhered to, because all else is a waste of time and energy.

The redemption which the Lord Jesus effected for his people is eternal. It will continue forever. It is not a temporary deliverance leaving the redeemed in danger of falling into sin and ruin, but it makes salvation secure, and in its effects extends through eternity. Who can estimate the extent of that love which purchased for us “such” a redemption? Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Who can be sufficiently grateful that he is consequently redeemed? The doctrine in this verse is, that the blood of Christ is the means of redemption, or atones for sin. In the following verses the apostle shows that it not only makes atonement for sin, but that it is the means of sanctifying or purifying the soul.

Hebrews 10:14> For by one offering he hath
(“Perfected Forever”) them that are sanctified, and are being sanctified. Hebrews 10:17> (“And There Sins And Iniquities I Will Remember No More”). Hebrews 9:12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves as in the days of the old Covenant, but by “Jesus Own Blood” he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained
(“Eternal Redemption”) for us.
Acts 16:31 whosoever believes on the name of the Lord shall be safe and his house. Acts 2:21 whosoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Won’t you call on Jesus today?
