Good morning Beloved
*THE PRICE PAID*
There is an assurance that comes with knowing that nothing is demanded from you to be saved.
When a believer keeps thinking that he has to do somewhat to be saved, it not only affects him but also others.
Ephesians 1:7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
{ *our redemption is in Christ.
*it is through His blood that He shade that is His life.
Stop pleading the blood it is not your job but the finished work on the Cross.Hallelujah .
* it is according to the riches of His Grace not your prayers .}
Colossians 1:14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
Paul speaks of the blood of Jesus with a finality such that nothing should cross the mind of the man as to whether there is still something he can do to help or assist Jesus.
😇😇😇😇😇😇😇
1st John 2:1 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
Vs 2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
👆🏽pay attention
There was only one price paid for all; believers and unbelievers.
The difference is in the fact that the believer has received this price while the unbeliever has refused it.
This is the reason why he stands condemned, because he has refused the price that was paid for sins.
The fact that sins have been paid for should make the believer not troubled.
Trying to “score points” with God can only lead to agitation and distress.
We have not been asked to do anything to pay for sins. It is all done in Christ.
1st Corinthians 1:30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
( Christ was made unto us wisdom , righteousness, sanctification, and redemption )
1st Peter 1:18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; Vs 19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
The word “precious” means inestimable, that is, the blood of Christ is inestimable.
It implies that the blood of Christ cannot be reduced to something material or perishable.
So what is the Blood of Christ?
We would answer this question when explaining the forgiveness of sins and the concept of shedding of blood.
CONFESSION: I do not try to score points with God. all sins have been paid for in Christ. There is no demand on me to pay for sins.Amen
