What does redemption through His blood bring about?
Redemption through His blood brings about the forgiveness of sins, not because anyone merited it but according to His grace. Through that blood believers also have their redemption and their position in Christ. This work is beyond human comprehension, planned in God’s foreknowledge before we came on the scene.
Les teaches that it is the redemption through His blood that brings about the forgiveness of sins, and it is not because we have merited it, but it is all according to His grace. He says this is beyond human comprehension: God did all this before we even came on the scene, with the foreknowledge that we would one day be His, be in Him, and be redeemed and forgiven. Les also points out that redemption is not a Pauline invention; it comes all the way up from the Garden of Eden. Adam and Eve were His and fellowshipped with Him, but sin came in and He lost them, so He asked, “Where art thou?”
