5-24-21   THOUGHTS

Our topic for our readings last night was  the REDEEM IDEA IN THE N.T.  The price paid to free a slave is the idea.  The PRICE IS THE BLOOD OF CHRIST!
Eph 1:7  In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

Luke 24:21   "But we were hoping that it was He who was going to redeem Israel. Indeed, besides all this, it is the third day since these things happened.
Rom 3:24   Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
Rom 8:23   And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
1Cor 1:30   But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
Eph 1:14   Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.
Eph 4:30   And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
Col 1:14   In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
Heb 9:12   and not through the blood of goats and calves, but through His own blood, He entered the holy place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption.
Heb 9:15  And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance..
Titus 2:14  who gave Himself for us to redeem us from every lawless deed, and to purify for Himself a people for His own possession, zealous for good deeds.
   
Rom 7:22-8:2    For I joyfully concur with the law of God in the inner man, 23  but I see a different law in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin which is in my members. 24  Wretched man that I am! Who will set me free from the body of this death?  25  Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, on the one hand I myself with my mind am serving the law of God, but on the other, with my flesh the law of sin. 1  Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.  2  For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.

My Prayer:
We praise your great name and honor you and lift you up to the highest place  O God.  Only you have the power to save, to buy us out of sin.  You did just that O Father.  The Blood of your son was the price.  Jesus willingly paid that price as he shed his blood for us.  Help to see this picture continually.  Help us to joyfully respond.                      In the name of Jesus        Amen
