Paid : In Blood.

[Behold]

Reader,

Lets look at how you were redeemed if you are truly born again.
Now , if you are just water baptized and religious, then this short teaching is what you NEED....because you dont have God's redemption yet.

1 Tim 2:6

If you read it, you'll find that Jesus is God's = Ransom that has been paid for You.

Now, The idea is...... that if your children or loved one is taken from you by the bad people....then you pay a required sum of money to the bad people to get them back.

So, What you pay to get your loved ones back, is what is required by the bad people, = as the RANSOM that is going to get your loved one released.

Now, as we turn this into Paul's Theology.... in the case of a SINNER needing God's Eternal Salvation....... The question is...= what is requried by God, on their/our behalf, that He requires to redeem you..to forgiven you.. to free you, and get you BACK into His Everlasting Spiritual Family ??

What does God require to pay for you....to pay for your SIN.??

A.) Its innocent Holy Blood shed for you.

And whose is that?, as He is your RANSOM of Innocent BLOOD being paid on The Cross... that eternally satisfies God's JUSTICE and Judgement against your dirty rotten sinful life.
See that?

So, the simple doctrinal (soteriology) understanding is..... = HOLY God offers Jesus's BLOOD to buy you back from the Devil, and to forgive your sin, to eternally redeem you.... and get you back INTO HEAVEN, into Himself.

Now....How does Paul teach this?

He teaches this as you being blood bought .

Here is the verse.

""""""""Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which He bought with his own Blood..""""" (Notice also this verse teaches the Deity of Christ).

[Prycejosh1987]

There are alot of christians that do not fully understand what Jesus did for us. He is essentially sharing His status and position and essence with people who make it to Him in heaven. A bride holds value in the eyes of the marriage and to everyone involved. We are the bride of Christ.

""We are the bride of Christ."
Why does Paul teach we are the body of Christ ?

The Cross of Christ is a Divine Exchange.

Its this..

"God hath made Jesus to be SIN for us"...........so there go our sins......and then by FAITH ,. we receive this....

A.) The imputed righteouness of God, as "the Gift of Righteousness".

The simple way to understand it is.....>> : Jesus became our sin, and the born again became His Righteousness.

Does this mean that a Christian is perfect, and never makes a mistake or a bad decision or decides to pursue some fleshly desire?

No.

It means that God has now counted the born again as "made free from sin".....having become "the righteousness of God, in Christ'.

God has now established the born again, as having received "the gift of Righteousness"......and that is eternal, and has nothing to do with behavior, as the righteousness, is based on The Cross of Christ, and is given to a BELIEVER, as "our faith is counted by GOD as (Christ's) righteousness.""""

This is undeserved and it can't be earned.
Its a GIFT from God that is eternal.

Welcome To : SALVATION...........Its a GIFT from God through Christ.
