The Remedy is Redemption |
||
Man in sin is
spiritually diseased as much as is a leper physically. Unless we find and
partake of the remedy we shall be eternally separated from God in
spiritual death and the torments of hell. That is what sin does for you.
Is there no remedy for this malady? Yes, there is, thanks to the love, mercy and grace of God. The remedy is offered through God's only begotten Son, Jesus Christ. The remedy is that we be bought back or redeemed. We sell our souls to Satan by sinning and can be bought back by the blood of Christ. He purchased the church, the saved, with His blood. Those faithful in the church belong to Him. The redemption price was paid at Calvary according to God's plan. We can partake of the benefits of His death when obey the gospel, believing in Christ as God's Son, repenting of sins, confessing our faith in Him, and being baptized into His death where His blood was shed. THEN we are redeemed by the blood of the Lamb and the remedy for sin is accomplished. Thank God. |
