What does redemption through Christ's blood bring about?
Redemption through His blood brings about the forgiveness of sins, not because anyone merited it, but according to His grace. It also establishes the believer's position in Christ, a work planned by God in foreknowledge before we came on the scene, so that we would be redeemed and forgiven.
Les explains that redemption through His blood brings about the forgiveness of sins, and this is not because we have merited it but according to His grace. He emphasizes that our redemption and our position in Christ come through His blood, and that cannot be thrown out or ignored. Les also notes 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 every day, but sin came in and He lost them because He could not fellowship with them in their sin. That separation is pictured when God asked, "Where art thou?" Adam should have answered, "We're lost."
