God sent forth His Son to redeem us

Posted

“But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.” Galatians 4:4-5

Why did God send His own dear Son into this world? He sent Him to redeem us from the curse and condemnation of God’s law by dying in our stead and paying the just penalty for our sins so that we might look to Him and His redemptive work in faith and be pardoned and adopted and accepted as God’s dear children and receive eternal life.

Thank You, O gracious God, for sending Your Son to redeem me from the curse and condemnation of Your holy law. Grant that I hold fast to Christ Jesus in faith that I may be Your child and partake of the eternal joys of Your kingdom. Amen.
