Redemption God's Way

Psalm 111:9 He sent redemption unto his people; He hath commanded His covenant forever, holy and reverend is His name.

Matthew 20:28 even as the Son of Man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister and to give his life a ransom for many.

Redemption God way came through Christ.

It is in Him Christ who of God is made unto us wisdom, righteousness, and sanctification and redemption. Wisdom that we are wise of sin and understand its retributions. Righteousness that we conform to His standard of perfection. Sanctification that we may know that He is the Lord; the truth, the way and the life. Redemption that we may know we have hope in Christ and with Him there is mercy.

We are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. God set Christ forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past through the forbearance of God.

Just as Simon the Sorcerer we too must accept, believe and confess Christ as Lord and Savior. If we expect to be redeemed God's way; we have to leave some things behind and make a 100% turn around. Being redeemed means we must put a difference between us and sin. Our eyes must be opened and we turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan unto God that we may receive forgiveness of sins and have an inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith.

We are brought forth with a price! Jesus gave his life that we be made free from sin. He died to deliver us from this …show more content…

We are to walk in love as Christ has also loved us. We too are to make the necessary sacrifices needed to be in obedience to God. We obtained salvation that rather we be asleep or woke we should live together with Christ.

Their is only one mediator between God and men Christ Jesus. The bread He gives us is His flesh which He gave for the life of the world. He reasons with us out of the Scriptures that we would repent our ways and take the way of Christ. Christ said follow me as I follow my Father. We will gain the promise of eternal life if we take heed and feed ourselves of the Word of God.

The Holy Ghost has been given to us that we follow His leading into all truth. Our strength lies in Him that died for us. It is scarcely that anyone will give their life to die for another. God commended His love toward us that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.

Much more then, being now justified by his blood we shall be saved from wrath through Him; we being reconciled to

    Redemption is a word that contains various meanings. It could be referring to forgiveness, or recovery. Perhaps an escape from something. It is something that everybody yearns for, but cannot quite grasp in their hands. It is not something that we can look for and find. In fact, redemption often comes our way on its own when we expect it the least. Three characters from three stories go through different conflicts and redeem themselves in ways they never would have guessed. Some even found redemption with the help of others. Guy Montag from the novel Fahrenheit 451 finds redemption through freedom and liberation. The lawyer in the short story The Bet redeems himself by way of recovery. Edmond Dantes achieved his redemption through deception. These three characters redeem themselves in different ways, but something they all share is that they all go through the process of redemption and become reformed in some way.

    “Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned” (Romans 5:12). In order for humanity to fulfill it’s created purpose and be completely satisfied in life, each individual must worship God in every deed, word, and thought. God reveals this purpose over and over again in the first eleven chapters of Genesis in the story of Cain and Able, Noah and the flood, the tower of Babel, and most importantly, the fall. With all of this in mind, one must ask the question, “How can we fulfill our purpose if we are unable to worship God?” That is where Christ comes in. Because of His great love, He came to this earth and died for humanity so that they could be restored to life (Romans 5:8). By accepting Jesus’ free gift of salvation, His blood covers all sin and His righteousness is credited to the sinner (Romans 6:23). The result, then, is that everyone who receives this gift is now free to live their lives for Christ; fulfilling their created purpose. There is, then, only two human identities. Either one has accepted Christ’s gift of salvation and now identifies as a child of God, or he rejects God and chooses death over life. The child of God now lives under the authority of Christ and interprets everything through a different

    Looking first to James 1:18 we see who is actually responsible for our salvation. James answers the question, “Was it God or was it me?” The answer of course is that it is always God. One hundred percent of the time God is responsible for our salvation by the death and resurrection of His Son, Jesus Christ or as James states it “fulfillment of his own purpose.” Based on that then, through faith in God and trust in the purpose, it is that we receive salvation. Only God can give us new birth by knowing the true condition of the heart that makes the salvation real and true. Allowing us to become born again, regenerated, and the first fruits of His harvest.

    Justification is the forensic act of God which is centered around the works that Jesus did. By the payment of sin paid on that cross by, we (his creation) can be (choice) made righteous because of His work, not human works. The doctrine of justification is explain and develop well by the apostle Paul, teaching that salvation is not only for Jews, but also for gentiles. Salvation has always been centered on Christ, in the Old and in the New Testament. Without divine truth in Him, there would be no unity or relationship with God or Christ without the works of His Justification.

We can place our confidence in Him because of His divine nature” (7). This is the ultimate application of the gospel of John. John is a book that Christians need to read and gather as much information out of it as possible to share with others who do not believe in or have not heard of Jesus. The applications written in this book are for all to hear and for all to reap the benefits of. Jesus is the only one who can save humanity from the sin that we have brought upon ourselves in which the consequence is death. Jesus died on the cross so that we would not have to pay for our sins. God sacrificed His one and only son so that we may live eternally with Him in Heaven. According to the lesson on John, the Holy Spirit empowers Christians to provide the gospel message to others and share the love of Christ (Lesson 7.23.3).

  • Salvation And Salvation In Christianity

    1058 Words  | 3 Pages

    Salvation, in Christianity, is defined as the state of being saved from sin or evil (Merriam-Webster). The word salvation is mentioned in one hundred and fifty-eight different verses in the Bible (The Holy Bible: KJV). It is written in John 3:16 that “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” According to that verse, God loves us so much that he gave the life of his only Son so that we could obtain salvation from the sin and evil within the world. The verse also explains that by believing in God and that God sent Jesus to die on the cross for our sins we can have life everlasting in heaven with him. Numerous times salvation and the Christian faith can seem confusing to those who are not Christians. However, as the verse John 3:16 explains, salvation is in actuality simple. Hearing the Gospel of Jesus Christ, believing that Jesus Christ is the Son of the one true God, repenting of sin, and confessing that Jesus Christ is God’s son who was sent to die on the cross for the sin of all mankind is how we can obtain salvation and have eternal life in heaven.

    A feeling of relief comes with the thought of being redeemed. Once one declares that they are redeemed, they are forgiven by the victim and as a result, freed from guilt. Freedom is the ultimate goal in order to obtain forgiveness. When one asks for forgiveness they wish to be freed from their mistakes or betrayal. There are steps to conquer in order to attain freedom; one must be forgiven first, and then their mind can be freed only then can one be considered redeemed.
