OUR REDEMPTION

 ANCHOR OF LIFE DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE for Saturday, 13TH AUGUST, 2022.

Author: PASTOR DR. SAMUEL AYORINDE - General Overseer

Topic: OUR REDEMPTION

MEMORIZE: “to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.” Galatians 4:5 

SCRIPTURE READING: Galatians 4:4-7

“But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons. And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, "Abba, Father!" Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.”

EXPOSITION:

Redemption, "to deliver by paying a price." The New Testament doctrine. The New Testament records the fulfilment of the Old Testament types and prophecies of redemption through the sacrifice of Christ. The completed truth is set forth in the three words which are translated redemption

(1) Greek, "agorazo", "to purchase in the market." The underlying thought is of a slave-market. The subjects of redemption are "sold under sin" Rom 7:14 but are, moreover, under sentence of death; Ezek. 18:4; John 3:18-19; Rom 3:19; Gal 3:10; and the purchase price is the blood of the Redeemer who dies in their stead; Gal 3:13; 2Co 5:21; Mat 20:28; Mark 10:45; 1Tim 2:6; 1Peter 1:18.

(2) Greek, "exagorazo", "to buy out of the market." The redeemed are never again to be exposed to sale;

(3) Greek, "lutroo", "to loose,""to set free by paying a price" John 8:32; Gal 4:4-5, 31; Gal 5:13; Rom 8:21. Redemption is by sacrifice and by power. - Exod. 14:30.

Christ paid the price, the Holy Spirit makes deliverance actual in experience - Rom 8:2; Isa. 59:20; Rom 1:16.

PRAYER POINT:

Lord, thank you Jesus for the redemption of my soul and of the world in Jesus name. 

DAILY BIBLE READING IN A YEAR – Isaiah 47-50.
