Basic Theology: Redemption - What were we redeemed with?



What were we redeemed with?

V18, knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers,

➢ Not with silver and gold,
➢ Not with any perishable commodity,
➢ Not with any decaying commodity,
➢ This isn't some ransom price,
➢ There is no human wealth and
➢ There is no earthly commodity that can pay the price.

"We were redeemed with precious blood,"
the death of someone precious, the death of a precious Lamb, an unblemished spotless Lamb.

Psalms 49:7-8, None of them can by any means redeem his brother, Nor give to God a ransom for him 8 For the redemption of their souls is costly, And it shall cease forever—

There need to be a substitute to pay the price of redemption, to pay the ransom to God and it takes the death of a spotless Lamb without blemish who is precious.

V 19, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.
it's Christ.

That's why John the Baptist looked at Jesus when He came down to the Jordan River and said,
John 1:29, "Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world."

Election : The Election of Priests, Kings, and Disciples The Election of Messiah and Angels The Election of Jerusalem The Election of False Gods and Foolish Things The Election of Israel The “Few Chosen” Are Israelites The Elect in the Tribulation The Elect in Peter’s Epistles Are Jewish Elect but Not Saved The Elect in Romans Are Israelites Election of Grace Foreknowledge The Remaining Verses of Election Conclusion Basic Theology: Election Part 01 Video Basic Theology: Election Part 02 Video Election The predestination by which God adopts some to the hope of life, and adjudges others to eternal death, no man who would be thought pious ventures simply to deny…By predestination, we mean the eternal decree of God, by which he determined with himself whatever he wished to happen with regard to every man. All are not created on equal terms, but some are preordained to eternal life, others to eternal damnation; and, accordingly, as each has been created for one or other of these ends, we sa...

Jesus Christ Second Coming – Lesson 02  Jewish Wedding Previous: Lesson 01 Jesus relied on the ancient Jewish wedding pattern for many of His parables. Matthew 22:1-14(Parable of the Wedding Feast) and Matthew 25:1-13 (Parable of the Wise and Foolish virgins) So here we are going to look at how a traditional Jewish wedding took place when Jesus was on the earth. Please do remember our Lord came in the Jewish family and He is a Jew!! Whether you like it or not!! Please do travel with me to the middle east to the first century and let us study the customs so that we will have a clear understanding of what the Lord Jesus Christ meant when He spoke about His coming.

Bridegroom takes the initiative The prospective bridegroom took the initiative in informing his father about the bride. Father takes his son for a few days away with him a...
