The Joy of Redemption

The 12 Joys of Christmas: The Joy of Redemption.
Romans 3:23-24 "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a free gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, esv Those who have accepted Christ in their hearts have been redeemed by Jesus Christ. Webster defines redemption as " the act of procuring the deliverance of persons or things from the possession and power of captors by the payment of an equivalent.... Deliverance from bondage, distress, or from liability to any evil or forfeiture,"
We have bought with a price, and that price could only be paid by Jesus Christ. Only a "lamb with out blemish" would be accepted by the Father. Jesus Christ was the only one who could live a sinless life. Perfect in every way. Look to Christ this Christmas. This time of the year is all about Him. He deserves our praise, service, and remembrance this Christmas. What a joy! I am redeemed!
