"A Ransom for Redemption"

“A Ransom for Redemption”

No one can redeem the life of another or give to God a ransom for them---the ransom for a life is costly, no payment is ever enough---so that they should live on forever and not see decay.               Psalm 49:7-9



God created mankind, with the ability to live FOREVER, somewhere, either HEAVEN or HELL.  The wise and the foolish all face a PHYSICAL death, where the BODY dies, ceases to exist, but the SPIRITUAL body, will spend ETERNITY somewhere.  And God has given mankind the opportunity to make their OWN choice, as to where they will spend that ETERNITY.  What I am saying is THERE IS LIFE AFTER the DEATH of the PHYSICAL BODY.  And the ONLY WAY for you to prove me right or wrong is to die, and find out for yourself, but then it will be to late, and you cannot come back from the dead to PROVE it.



Our Psalmist, tells us that:  “NO ONE can REDEEM the life of another or give to God a RANSOM for them---the RANSOM for a life is COSTLY, NO payment is ever enough---”  In other words, no matter how RICH you are, you DON’T have the way or means to obtain ETERNAL LIFE for another nor for yourself, for that matter.  Because ETERNAL LIFE is COSTLY, after all, God GAVE His ONLY SON to DIE, in order that those who BELIEVE on His NAME, and ACCEPTS Him into their HEARTS, might have ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with all its BLESSINGS.  Ephesians 1:7, says:  “In Him we HAVE REDEMPTION through His BLOOD, the FORGIVENESS of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s GRACE.” 



This is the ONLY WAY that mankind can be REDEEMED.  The RANSOM is the SHED BLOOD, of the LORD JESUS CHRIST.  For the UNBELIEVER, they are DESTINED for an ETERNAL LIFE in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, once you are there.  The RANSOM has already been paid for the REDEMPTION of those who will ACCEPT IT by FAITH.  If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to God, then you will SPEND your ETERNAL LIFE in HELL.  But God is giving you an opportunity NOW, to change your DESTINY by:  TURNING AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURNING TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  Then CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  And ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and KNOW that the RANSOM for your REDEMPTION has been PAID IN FULL, and you will receive an ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN.  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and coming SOON!!!
