One of my favorite words, which has become a cliche' in Christian circles is the word REDEMPTION. This morning I took a couple of minutes to read once again about what it actually means. Here are some of what i found....
"Purchasing of a slave with a view to his freedom."
"to buy up for ones self"
"to release a receipt of ransom"
"to free from bondage"
"liberation from guilt or doom"
if you have been redeemed basically it means you are free. you are no longer a captive, you do not have to live in captivity. you do not have to stay there any longer. you have the freedom and liberty to walk away from the bondage. The choice is up to us. As one great orator stated, "you dont have to live like this!" so dont.
