WITH the Lord there is mercy, and with Him is plenteous redemption” (Psa. 130:7).
Redemption shines resplendent on the pages of Holy Writ. Job, its earliest, and John, its latest writer, celebrate its glories. Job knew, three things.
He knew his Redeemer was alive.
“I know that my Redeemer liveth.”
He knew He would come to this world.
“He shall stand... upon the earth.”
He knew that his eyes would behold Him.
“Whom I shall see for myself.”
(Job 19:25, 26, 27).
DO YOU KNOW THIS FOR YOURSELF?
Redemption is from the power of the enemy (Psa. 106:10). It is found alone in Christ Jesus (Rom. 3:24), It includes the body (Rom. 8:23). It is secured at the infinite cost Of THE PRECIOUS BLOOD of CHRIST.
Redemption is the anthem of heaven.
“They sung a new song.”
The Redeemer is the Lamb.
“A lamb as it had been slain.”
Redemption and Calvary are inseparable,
“Redeemed to God by Thy blood.”
Redemption is “out of every kindred,
tongue, people, and nation.” (Rev. 5:9).
