SCRIPTURE

"in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace," — Ephesians 1:7 (ASV)

In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

Redemption from destruction, the forgiveness of our sins, — we have all this through "the riches of his grace."

In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace:

Notice how the Apostle keeps on insisting that we have everything in Christ. He says, again and again, in him, in Christ. We have redemption. We are free. We are under bonds no longer. What is the price? Through his blood. What is the result?

Forgiveness of sins. What is the measure of our liberty?

According to the riches of his grace.
