Redemption
Notas do episódio
I greet you in Jesus precious name! It is Saturday morning, the 31st of October, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.
We start in Ephesians 1:7:
”In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace”
Then the next one, a little bit further on in the Book of Colossians 1:14:
”in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins.”
Jesus Christ has paid the price for you and me. We are sinful people. We can try as long as we like to justify our sins, but we can’t. In the Old Testament, they were continually offering up sacrifices for their sins, but it didn’t work. Father God sent His only begotten Son to die on the cross to pay the ultimate price for your sin, young man, for your sin, young lady.
I looked up the meaning. “Redeemer” means that He pays the price to rescue humanity from the bondage of sin, spiritual death and separation from God. The Lord has paid a tremendous price for you and me, and He has paid it in full. When He died on the cross He said, ”It is finished.” Hallelujah! And He meant it. That means you can walk free. Repent of your sin, ask the the Lord to forgive you and He will do it. It is something that is very hard to understand. You say, ”Every sin I’ve ever committed, Angus?” Yes, every single sin that you have ever committed.
I was at a prayer meeting this morning, and I heard a very sad story of a man who is busy dying at the moment because he will not accept the fact that Jesus Christ has paid for his sin. He said that his sins are too terrible for God to forgive. That’s a lie, and it comes from the pit of hell.
You know that old song, I think we have sung it before haven’t we?
He paid a debt He did not owe
I owed a debt I could not pay
I needed someone to wash my sins away
And now I sing a brand new song
Amazing grace
Christ Jesus paid a debt that I could never pay.
Pray this prayer after me.
Dear Lord Jesus, thank You for dying on the cross of Calvary for a sinner like me. I confess all of my sins to You today, and by faith I believe that You have forgiven me. Amen.
God bless you and Goodbye.
