For you know that God paid a
ransom to save you from the
empty life you inherited from
your ancestors. And the ransom
he paid was not mere gold or
silver. He paid for you with
the precious lifeblood of Christ,
the sinless, spotless Lamb of God.
The real problem with the world isn’t money, politics, or even the economy. The real problem facing the world is the sin that resides in the hearts of man. Because of this problem, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God had to be offered as ransom. Regarding ransoms, the Guinness Book of World Records posted that the greatest ransom ever paid was that for Atahualpa by the Incas to Francisco Pizarro in 1533 at Cajamarca, Peru. It was an entire hall full of gold and silver. While that’s a pretty impressive ransom, it just can’t be compared to what God did to pay your ransom. He gave His Son’s life as a ransom for all to be free and have salvation. John 8:36 says, “If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.” You’re neither a slave or hostage any longer. You’re free indeed.
