I was reminded today of one of the most simple truths of faith in Jesus Christ.....redemption. So often I go about my life with no thought to the fact that not only did Christ pay my ransom but there was a ransom to be paid! I forget that I am dust, that my faults, my careless words and actions and my lackluster response to His glory all add up to a heap of overwhelming, mile high pile of sin for which the penalty is death. DEATH....dying, separation from Christ and His glory forever more.....FOREVER! That is what I deserve and nothing less. There was a ransom to be paid.....BUT God not because of any good found in me, chose to pay the ransom to win me back.....because HE wanted to. He paid the ransom.....PAID THE RANSOM!!!!
Amen I am FREE!!!
Why would the God of the universe save me?
He paid your ransom too!
