2. Ephesians 1:3-7
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, 4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. In love 5 He predestined us to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the kind intention of His will, 6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, which He freely bestowed on us in the Beloved. In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace…

1 And you were dead in your trespasses and sins, 2 in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience. 3 Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.

9 But we do see Him who was made for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone. 10 For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to perfect the author of their salvation through sufferings… 14 Therefore, since the children share in flesh and blood, He Himself likewise also partook of the same, that through death He might render powerless him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, 15 and might free those who through fear of death were subject to slavery all their lives.

13. Hebrews 9:12

“Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” (Romans 8:1)

20. Redemption The Price of Redemption –
In Him we have redemption through His blood… 
“through His blood” is a kind of short-hand that speaks of the culmination of the sufferings and accomplishments of Jesus for our salvation.
By the shed blood of Christ we are reconciled (made at peace) with God. Colossians 1: For it was the Father's good pleasure for all the fullness to dwell in Him, 20 and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace through the blood of His cross;

21. Redemption The Price of Redemption –
In Him we have redemption through His blood… 
By the shed blood of Christ we are cleansed of our sins (kept in good moral standing before God and one another). In 1 John 1:7 we learn, 7 but if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.

22. Redemption The Price of Redemption –
In Him we have redemption through His blood… 
By the shed blood of Christ we are sanctified (made more and more like Christ). In Hebrews 13:12 we read, “Therefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people through His own blood, suffered outside the gate.”

23. 1 Peter 1:18-19

25. Matthew 27:27-28

26. 1 John 3:4-10
4 Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness. 5 You know that He appeared in order to take away sins; and in Him there is no sin. 6 No one who abides in Him sins; no one who sins has seen Him or knows Him. 7 Little children, make sure no one deceives you; the one who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous; 8 the one who practices sin is of the devil; for the devil has sinned from the beginning. The Son of God appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil. 9 No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 10 By this the children of God and the children of the devil are obvious: anyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor the one who does not love his brother.

As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us.

You have a great provider –
Just as it is a father’s responsibility to provide for his children our heavenly Father provides for His own (Matthew 6:31-34). And in Christ, we have the provision of the great Shepherd to guide those of us who are His sheep (see Psalm 23:1-6; 37: 23-24; John 10:11).

32. Redemption's blessings…
You have a great protector -
Just as it is a king’s responsibility to protect his people, and a husband’s responsibility to protect his wife; Christ, who is our Husband and King, protects His own with sovereign power (see Ephesians 5:22-32; Revelation 19:6-7; 16).

33. Let the redeemed…
Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom He has redeemed from the hand of the adversary (Psalm 107:2).
