Jesus Our Ransomer

“For there is one God; there is also one mediator between God and humankind, Christ Jesus, himself human, who gave himself a ransom for all” 1 Timothy 2:5-6a

One fascinating theory of atonement is the idea of ransom.

A ransom is when something of value is exchanged for the freedom of the one held captive.

That's what Jesus did for us. He gave himself as a ransom to secure our salvation.

We all have things in our lives that hold us captive – despair, division, sin, and toxic habits.

Remember, Jesus has paid to set us free. Give thanks and boldly live in freedom from these things.

Trust in Jesus, for His love alone ransoms and frees us.

O God, your love alone ransoms and frees us. We thank you that Jesus gave his own life to set us free. In Jesus’ holy name we pray. Amen.
