1. Jesus came to free us from the bondage of sin.
REDEMPTION — deliverance by payment of a price.
In the New Testament, redemption refers to salvation from sin, death, and the wrath of God by Christ’s sacrifice.
In the Old Testament, the word redemption refers to redemption by a KINSMAN (Lev.
25:24, 51–52; Ruth 4:6; Jer.
32:7–8), rescue or deliverance (Num.
3:49), and ransom (Ps.
111:9; 130:7).
In the New Testament it refers to loosing (Luke 2:38; Heb.
9:12) and loosing away (Luke 21:28; Rom.
3:24; Eph.
1:14).
In the Old Testament redemption was applied to property, animals, persons, and the nation of Israel as a whole.
In nearly every instance, freedom from obligation, bondage, or danger was secured by the payment of a price, a ransom, bribe, satisfaction, or sum of money paid to obtain freedom, favor, or reconciliation.
People may redeem property, animals, and individuals (slaves, prisoners, indentured relatives) who are legally obligated to God or in bondage for other reasons.
God alone, however, is able to redeem from the slavery of sin (Ps.
130:7–8), enemy oppressors (Deut.
15:15), and the power of death (Job 19:25–26; Ps. 49:8–9).
The New Testament emphasizes the tremendous cost of redemption: “the precious blood of Christ” (1 Pet.
1:19; Eph.
1:7), which is also called an atoning sacrifice, “a propitiation by His blood” (Rom.
3:25).
Believers are exhorted to remember the “price” of their redemption as a motivation to personal holiness (1 Cor.
6:19–20; 1 Pet.
1:13–19).
The Bible also emphasizes the result of redemption: freedom from sin and freedom to serve God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
How can we fail to rejoice, having been freed from the oppressive bondage of slavery to sin (John 8:34; Rom.
6:18), the law (Gal.
4:3–5; 5:1), and the fear of death (Heb.
2:14–15)?
“Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed” (John 8:36).
2. We Must Be Born Again
3. Don’t stay in the Old life.
