Pastor reminds us that redemption is releasing someone who is held captive after a ransom is paid. Redemption, for us, did not just come from the fact that Jesus died for us but also important to understand that redemption comes from the literal shed blood of Jesus Christ. The old testament sacrifices of the shedding of blood of animals shows a picture of the ultimate sacrifice of the shed blood of Jesus Christ. We are asked how the redemption, which we have been given, has changed us.
