What does redemption mean in Romans 3:24?
In Romans 3:24, redemption means the process of paying the price and buying something back, and it is in Christ Jesus. Justification comes freely by God's grace, not by anything we do, through faith in His blood—the required blood payment for men's sin debt.
Les explains that in Romans 3:24 redemption is that process of paying the price and buying something back that is in Christ Jesus. He stresses that we are justified freely by God's grace, not by anything we do. Christ was set forth as a propitiation through faith in His blood. There had to be a blood payment for men's sin debt, and we cannot go around it. Les says there must be abiding faith that when Christ died, He shed His divine, precious, sinless blood as the requirement from the Creator Himself. Through faith in His blood, God declares His righteousness for the remission of sins, and Christ is just and the justifier of those who believe. Nothing else can be added.
