The blood of Jesus Christ is redemption, even the forgiveness of sins.
As it is written: " Delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins." (
Col. 1:13, 14
13
Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
14
In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: (Colossians 1:13‑14)
.)
This expression, "In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins," is just what is found in
Eph. 1:7
7
In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; (Ephesians 1:7)
. There is, however, a difference in the contexts of the two; for in Ephesians it is put in a More general way; in Colossians it seems especially connected with cleansing us from evil-the evil of the kingdom of Satan. In Ephesians, if you look at the two passages in, which the blood is referred to, you will see that it is mentioned in the first, in order that we might know ourselves to be free, to be sons of the Father, the bride of Christ, and the residence of the Holy Ghost. If you compare the quotation from
Col. 1:14
14
In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: (Colossians 1:14)
with what follows, you will see that in this epistle the blood is likewise referred to twice, but that the remission mentioned in the first place, is in this epistle connected more particularly with the bringing us from out of the dark
kingdom
of Satan, under the power of the kingdom of God's dear Son.
