CHRIST JESUS—THE ULTIMATE REDEEMER

In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace (Ephesians 1:7).

Redemption is one of the beautiful truths in the Gospel because it reveals not only what Christ accomplished, but also who He is. The Scriptures present the picture of a redeemer as one who has both the legal right and the ability to secure another's freedom. In the Lord Jesus Christ, we find the perfect and ultimate fulfilment of that picture. He is the Redeemer who paid the full price for our salvation and brought us into everlasting freedom.

In the law of Moses, a kinsman-redeemer could redeem a relative who had fallen into debt or bo***ge. The redeemer had a legal right to act on behalf of the one in need, but he also had to pay the required price. Freedom wasn't obtained by mere desire or good intentions; a price had to be paid.

This helps us understand the significance of Christ's sacrifice. Humanity's greatest problem was not merely the devil's oppression; it was the issue of sin. Sin had brought separation from God and placed mankind under judgment. The righteous demands of justice had to be satisfied. A price had to be paid.

What a blessing to know that the Lord Jesus took our place and paid the full price required for our redemption. The payment wasn't silver or gold; it was His precious blood. The Bible says, “Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold…But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot” (1 Peter 1:18-19).

When He shed His blood, He obtained eternal redemption for us. The debt was settled. The claims against us were satisfied. The penalty of sin was fully addressed. The Lord Jesus paid the price you could never pay. He accomplished what you could never accomplish for yourself.

Through His sacrifice, you've been brought into righteousness and fellowship with God. He met every demand of divine justice, paid the full price with His own blood, and secured your eternal liberty. Therefore, live with gratitude and confidence, knowing that your salvation is eternally secure in Him.

Prayer/Confession
Dear Father, I thank you for the redemption that is mine through the blood of Jesus Christ. I rejoice in the knowledge that the full price for my salvation has been paid. I walk in righteousness, in fellowship with you, and in grateful acknowledgment of the fulfilment of the full blessings of the Gospel in my life, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

HIS TRIUMPH OVER DARKNESS

And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it (Colossians 2:15).

The Lord Jesus didn’t only die for our sins; the Bible also reveals His absolute triumph over Satan and the forces of darkness. Colossians 2:15 (WNT) paints a vivid picture of this victory. It says, "And the hostile princes and rulers He shook off from Himself, and boldly displayed them as His conquests, when by the Cross He triumphed over them."

The Lord Jesus stripped principalities and powers of their authority, defeated the forces of darkness, and openly displayed them as conquered foes. Having borne the judgment for sin, He secured eternal salvation for mankind. He broke the chains that held humanity captive and emerged from death as the triumphant Conqueror.

The Bible presents one of the aspects of redemption as the work of a conquering king. When a victorious king invades a territory and defeats its oppressors, he doesn't negotiate with them or pay a ransom for the prisoners. He conquers the enemy and sets the captives free.

This helps us understand an important dimension of Christ's redemptive work: He didn’t pay to purchase man’s freedom from Satan. Rather, He defeated him. Before going to the Cross, Jesus lived a sinless life and demonstrated His mastery over the world and its ruler—Satan, the god of this world. He conquered the world because He first conquered the god of this world.

This victory was not for Himself but for you. He conquered the enemy and gave you the victory. The Scriptures tell us that before a strong man's house can be spoiled, the strong man must first be bound (Mark 3:27). The Lord Jesus bound Satan, the strong man. He defeated Satan in his own territory, broke the chains of darkness, and liberated mankind from his dominion.

Today, you're not fighting or striving for victory; you're living in the victory of Christ. In Christ, you've been translated out of the jurisdiction of darkness and brought into God's Kingdom of light. Therefore, walk in confidence and dominion, knowing that in Christ you’ve conquered Satan, overcome the world, and crucified the flesh.

Prayer/Confession
Dear Father, thank you for the victory you've given me in Christ Jesus. I rejoice in the knowledge that in Christ, I conquered Satan, overcame the world, and have come into liberty and triumph. I walk in dominion today, conscious of my authority in Christ and my life of ever increasing glory, unending victory and abundant grace, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

REDEMPTION FROM THE CURSE OF THE LAW

Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us... (Galatians 3:13).

Some people wrongly assume that every reference to redemption in the New Testament refers to redemption from the curse of the Law. But a careful study of the Scriptures reveals something important: the Law was given to Israel not to the Gentiles. Therefore, only those who were under the Law could be redeemed from its curse. In the above verse, Paul meant “us” Jews, distinguishing them from the Gentiles in verse 14.

That means redemption from the curse of the Law was for the Jews. Understanding this distinction helps you appreciate the precision of God's Word and the broader scope of the redemption that Christ accomplished. The Gentiles were never under the Law. The Bible says they were "...aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world" (Ephesians 2:12).

Thus, as stated, the curse associated with the Law applied to those who were under its jurisdiction; Christ became a curse to redeem the Jews from its curse. This doesn't diminish the greatness of Christ's redemptive work; rather, it helps us understand it more accurately. Through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, God brought salvation to all mankind. Through His blood, we have remission of sins, justification, reconciliation with God and the gift of eternal life.

The Christian was not redeemed but reborn, and there’s a great difference. We were brought into a newness of life, into glorious liberty to serve the Lord. We were born into His light, glory, and righteousness. We weren’t the ones who were redeemed from the curse of the Law. Hallelujah!

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the light of your Word and my glorious liberty in Christ Jesus to serve you and live for you in righteousness and truth. My understanding is enlightened to know and walk in the realities of my new life in Christ as I grow in spiritual maturity and accuracy through your Word. I live in the freedom, righteousness, and eternal life that Christ has made available to me, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

THE LEGAL SIDE OF OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS

And all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus (Romans 3:24 NIV).

Having understood from our previous study the importance of righteousness and its vital place in the Christian life, it's important to understand how this righteousness became yours. The Apostle Paul gives us a profound insight in Romans 3:24 when he says we’re justified freely by God’s grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.

Notice the word "justified." What does it mean to be justified? To be justified means to be declared righteous. This is the legal side of our righteousness. It is God's verdict concerning everyone who believes in Jesus Christ. This is the acquittal. This is a legal pronouncement from God Himself. The Judge of all the earth has declared you righteous.

Think about the significance of that. God didn't merely overlook your sins or decide to ignore your failures. He declared you righteous. He gave a verdict in your favour. This is why the Christian can stand before God without guilt, condemnation, or a sense of inferiority. His confidence rests not in personal performance but in God's declaration.

Romans 3:26 says, “To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.” The beauty of the Gospel is that this justification came freely by God’s grace. Righteousness is a gift of grace. We didn't qualify for it. God's favour was extended to us because of His love. It’s based on what Christ has done in your behalf.

This understanding transforms your relationship with God. Instead of striving to become accepted, you realise you've already been accepted in Christ: “To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved” (Ephesians 1:6). Walk in this reality.

Refuse to be moved by Satan’s accusations, feelings of unworthiness, or memories of past mistakes. God's verdict concerning you has already been established. Through Jesus Christ, you've been acquitted and declared righteous: “…you have been washed, you have been made holy, you have been given righteousness in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God” (1 Corinthians 6:11 BBE). Let this truth dominate your thinking and shape your walk with God.

CONFESSION
I’ve been washed, made holy, righteous, and sanctified in Christ Jesus. I rejoice in the reality of my justification. I refuse to live under condemnation or guilt because God’s Word has revealed that Christ is my righteousness. Therefore, I live boldly in God’s presence, enjoying the full blessings of the Gospel and my right standing with God. Hallelujah!

STAND FIRM IN RIGHTEOUSNESS

For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe (Hebrews 5:13).

There are Christians who sincerely love the Lord yet struggle to exercise consistent victory in their lives. They pray, fast and desire to grow spiritually but often find themselves intimidated by circumstances or continually battling the same challenges over and over again. The reason is not always a lack of zeal; often, it's a lack of understanding of righteousness.

We read in our opening scripture that “…every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.” This shows that spiritual maturity is connected to an understanding of righteousness. The one who doesn't understand the doctrine of righteousness remains spiritually unskilled.

You may know many things about Christianity, but if you don’t have the right understanding of your righteousness in Christ, you won't be proficient in the use of God's Word to maintain the life of dominion and constant victories we’ve been given in Christ. The lack of understanding of righteousness is the reason some Christians approach God with a consciousness of guilt, unworthiness, or condemnation.

What God wants is for you to be established in righteousness. Walk in the light of your righteousness. Stand boldly on God's Word. Never wonder whether or not you qualify for God’s blessings or deserve His help. Such thinking robs you of confidence and hinders the effective exercise of your faith.

Righteousness-consciousness gives you boldness. It gives you the confidence to stand in God’s presence without fear, inferiority, or condemnation. When you understand that you've been made the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, you won’t relate to God on the basis of your performance but on the basis of Christ's perfection.

This is why every Christian must be established in the doctrine of righteousness. Study and meditate on the truth that Christ is your righteousness. Let it become the consciousness of your spirit because the more you understand who you are in Christ, the more effective you'll be in exercising your authority in Him.

You were not made righteous because of your good works, nor do you maintain righteousness through your human effort. Therefore, refuse to live with a sense of inadequacy or spiritual insecurity. Stand firm in the righteousness God has given you and exercise your dominion with confidence.

Prayer/Confession
I’m the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, and I walk in the consciousness of my right standing with God and exercise my authority boldly in Christ. God’s Word builds my faith and prevails in my life today. I understand and live in the reality of my new life in Christ. Amen.

THE REALITY OF CHRISTIANITY

But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit (1 Corinthians 6:17).

In our previous study, we reviewed what it means to give your life to Christ. It means much more than merely "surrendering" your life to God. This understanding is important because many people still interpret salvation as the act of “surrendering” themselves to God. But Christianity is far more than that.

When a woman gets married, she doesn't merely surrender herself to her husband. She identifies with him. She comes into his home, takes his name, and becomes one with him. In much the same way, when you gave your life to Christ, you were brought into union with Him. You became a partaker of His life.

This is why the Bible says, “But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit” (1 Corinthians 6:17). It’s for the same reason it tells us we’re associates of the God kind: “Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature...” (2 Peter 1:4).

Don’t view Christianity through the lens of religion. The Lord Jesus didn't come merely to improve your conduct or introduce you to a new religious system. He came to give us the God-life. God's own nature has been imparted to your spirit. This is the essence of the New Birth and beauty of the Gospel. The divine life has supplanted the human life.

You've become one with the Lord in a living and inseparable relationship. His victory is your victory. His righteousness is your righteousness. His life is now your life. Walk in the consciousness of this divine union. You're not “following” Christ from a distance; you're in Him, and He is in you. That's the reality of Christianity.

Prayer/Confession
Dear Father, thank you for the divine life you've imparted to my spirit and my inseparable union with you through Christ. I walk in the consciousness of this union, manifesting the life, wisdom, righteousness, and glory of Christ to my world, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

WHAT IT MEANS TO GIVE YOUR LIFE TO CHRIST

And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark... (Genesis 7:1).

I once watched a television interview where the guest, a renowned preacher, was asked a simple question: What exactly does it mean to give your life to Christ? I expected he would be asked the question because throughout the interview, he made several references to “giving your life to Christ.”

His response was that giving your life to Christ meant allowing God to rule your life, and then starting to read the Bible. That moment highlighted something important: many who use the expression “give your life to Christ” may not truly understand what it means. But this is too important a subject to leave undefined because it relates to the very heart of the Gospel.

To give your life to Christ doesn't merely mean deciding to live differently or turning over a new leaf. It means identifying your life with His life. It means placing your life into His hands and receiving the salvation He accomplished for you. Jesus Christ, by your confession and affirmation becomes Lord of your life; you acknowledging that His death, burial, and resurrection were for your sake.

A beautiful picture of this is found in Noah's ark. In the days of Noah, safety wasn't found outside the ark; salvation was in the ark. Everyone who entered the ark was preserved from destruction. In the same way, Christ is God's Ark of salvation. When you give your life to Him, you enter into Him. You come into the place of safety, deliverance, and eternal life that God has provided through Jesus Christ.

This is why salvation is not merely adopting a religion or subscribing to a set of beliefs. It's entering into Christ. The Bible says, “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature...” (2 Corinthians 5:17). Notice the expression “in Christ.” That's the reality of salvation. You've been brought into Him by the new birth.

You're not struggling to save yourself or trying to earn God's acceptance. You've been brought into Christ, and in Him you have righteousness, peace, protection and eternal life. This is the blessing and security of everyone who’s given their lives to Christ.

Prayer/Confession
Dear Father, thank you for your grace that has brought salvation to all men through Jesus Christ. I rejoice that I've been brought into Christ and made one with Him. I live in the security, righteousness, and eternal life that you've provided through Him. Thank you for making me a new creation and establishing me in your grace forever, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

UNDERSTAND WHO IS BEING ADDRESSED

Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law... (Romans 3:19).

One of the most important principles for understanding the Scriptures is recognising contexts and target audience. Some become confused in their study of God's Word when they read verses without considering their actual context, audience, and purpose.

Not everything written in Scripture applies to the new creation. The Apostle Paul demonstrated this clearly in Romans chapter three. After quoting several passages that described the condition of those under the Law, he made a remarkable statement: “Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law...” (Romans 3:19).

Did you notice that? The Law spoke to those who were under its jurisdiction. Paul wanted this understanding to be clearly established, and it’s vital because many have read the declaration, “...There is none righteous, no, not one” (Romans 3:10), and assumed it applies equally to everyone today, including those who are born again. But Paul wasn't describing the new creation in Christ. He was presenting the Law's verdict on those who lived under the old covenant. The context makes this unmistakably clear.

When you understand who is being addressed, the Scriptures become clearer and more meaningful. You learn to distinguish between the Law and grace, between the Old Testament and the New Testament, and between what was spoken concerning man's condition apart from Christ and what is true of those who are now in Christ. This prevents confusion and helps you to rightly comprehend and apprehend God's truth.

The Bible is a progressive unveiling of God's redemptive plan. Therefore, it's important to follow the flow of revelation in the Scriptures. Don't isolate a verse from its context and build your understanding around it. Study the whole counsel of God and allow Scripture to interpret Scripture. The Bible says, “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15).

As a child of God, always study and receive the Word in the light of your identity in Christ and the realities of the new creation. That's how God's Word produces faith, confidence and victories in your life.

Prayer/Confession
Dear Father, thank you for the light of your Word and the ministry of the Holy Spirit who guides me into all truth. As I study the Scriptures, I receive understanding and insight into mysteries and realities of the Kingdom. I rightly comprehend, apprehend, and apply your Word, and I walk in the blessings, liberty and righteousness that belong to me in Christ Jesus. Amen.

GRACE AND TRUTH CAME BY JESUS CHRIST

For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ (John 1:17).

The Bible reveals a striking contrast between what came through Moses (the Law) and what came through Jesus Christ—grace and truth. This wasn't merely a change in doctrine or religious practice; it was the unveiling of God's ultimate answer to man's deepest need.

The Law had a purpose. It exposed sin, revealed man's inability to attain righteousness through his own efforts and showed the need for a Saviour. But the Law couldn't impart life, produce righteousness or bring man into fellowship with God. It identified the problem but couldn't provide the solution.

Then came the Lord Jesus; through Him, grace and truth were unveiled. Grace is God's loving disposition toward man expressed through the gift of salvation. God acted on our behalf, not because we deserved it but because He loved us. He made the Lord Jesus to be sin for us so that we might be made righteous.

Truth is the revelation of God's reality in Christ, the unveiling of who He is, what He accomplished and who we have become in Him. This is why the Gospel is so glorious. The Lord Jesus didn't merely tell us about righteousness; He made us righteous. He didn't simply expose sin; He removed its power and penalty. He didn't merely show us the way to God; He brought us into union and fellowship with the Father and made us the way to Him for the sinner.

What the Law could never produce, grace made possible through the Lord Jesus Christ. Through faith in Him, we've been justified, declared righteous, and brought into right standing with God. This is the blessing of the New Testament. The Bible says, “Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses” (Acts 13:38-39).

Today, we don’t relate to God through rules and regulations but through grace and truth. You've been brought into a living relationship with Him through the Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, walk in His grace, His truth and His righteousness that He’s freely bestowed on you.

Prayer / Confession

Dear Father, I rejoice in the blessings of my righteousness, eternal life and fellowship with you, which I've received through the Lord Jesus. I walk in the reality of who I am in Christ, in the fullness of your grace, wisdom, righteousness and truth, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

THE GENIUS OF CHRISTIANITY

To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory (Colossians 1:27)

What sets Christianity apart from every religion, philosophy, or system of human effort? What is the secret of its power and uniqueness? The answer is found in one profound truth: Christ in you!Christianity is the unveiling of a divine mystery: God Himself living in the human person through the Holy Spirit. This is the genius of Christianity.

In fact, it's interesting that the word "genius" is of Latin origin and refers to a spirit, a guardian spirit or deity believed to be responsible for someone's life from birth. Various cultures have had similar concepts. Among the Igbo people of Nigeria, for example, there's the idea of "Chi," one’s guardian angel or guardian spirit.

But Christianity presents something far greater. The Holy Spirit is the divine personality, the divine guardian and presence responsible for your life. The beautiful thing is that He doesn't guide you from a distance; He lives in you. Glory to God! Think about that. The One who is responsible for guiding, helping, strengthening, teaching, and leading you in God's purpose has made His home in your spirit.

You're never left alone to navigate life by your own wisdom, strength, or ability. The Holy Spirit in you guides you to perceive and comprehend the realities of the Kingdom. He knows what you do not know and leads you to walk in and fulfil God's perfect will. This is the extraordinary advantage of the Christian life.

The power, wisdom, grace and presence of God are not external realities you're trying to reach. They are resident within you through the Holy Spirit. He works in you and through you, making you equal to every task and effective in every good work. The wonder of Christianity is not merely that God helps you; it's that the Holy Spirit lives in you and takes personal responsibility for guiding, strengthening and leading you in the fulfilment of God's purpose for your life. What a life He's given us!

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the blessing and reality of Christ in me. I live with the consciousness of the Holy Spirit's indwelling presence and ministry in my life. He guides me in wisdom, strengthens me for every task, and leads me to fulfil your perfect will. Your life, power and glory are expressed through me today, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
