STAM PRES. / } BEREAN BIBLE SOCIETY I Ji CHICAGO 15, ILLINOIS /’ -N 41 / * V'-Jf Title: REDEEMED “We have redemption through His blood. . . ” (Eph. 1:7). Our English word “redeem” is actually a translation of three beautiful Greek words: Agarazo: to buy at the market. Ex-agarazo: to buy out of the market. Lutro: to set free (upon re cent or payment of the Ran som). It is the last of these that is used in Eph. 1:7. The believer in Christ has 1 iberty—purchased liberty—through Christ’s shed blood. First we were “bought with a price” and “redeemed to God” (I Cor. 6:20; Rev. 5:9). Further we were “redeemed from the curse of the law” (Gal. 3:15). And now best of all we have been set gloriously free (Eph. 1:7; Gal. 5:1). Why not turn In your Bible to Ephesians 1:6-8 and read this brief passage thoughtfully to see the boundless generosity of God’s dealings with those who put their trust in Christ as Savior. ’To the praise of the glory of His grace” God “bath made us accented (or, engraced us) in the Beloved One,” in home we have “redemption” and forgive ness of sins ACCORDING TO RICHES OF HIS GRACE, WHEREIN HE HATH ABOUN DED TOWARD US. . . Redeemed! Purchesed out of die slave market of sin and the law—and set gloriously free! Does this foster loose, careless conduct? By no means! When our Lord had given a blind man his sight, he said: "Go thy way thy faith hath made the whole.” but the. record hastens to add that “he followed Jesus in the wav” C~uld anything be more natural? And could any thing be more natuari than a redeemed, liberated sinner long ing to o’ease and serve his di vine Benefactor?
