Introduction

Good morning, beloved family of God! Isn't it a blessing to gather together in His name, bound by His love, and warmed by His grace? We are here today, not by accident, but by divine appointment. We are here to celebrate the redemption realized through Christ, to appreciate the relevance of His blood in our redemption, and to respond to the incredible gift of redemption that has been graciously bestowed upon us.

Redemption Realized through Christ

Now, let's take a closer look at our first scripture reference, Colossians 1:13-14. Here, the apostle Paul gives us a vivid picture of what redemption looks like. He tells us that we've been rescued from the dominion of darkness and brought into the kingdom of the Son he loves. This is a powerful image of transition, of transformation, of change.

Let's move on to our second scripture reference, Titus 2:11-14. Here, Paul is talking about the grace of God that brings salvation to all people. This grace, Paul says, teaches us to say 'No' to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives.

Our third scripture reference, Ephesians 1:7-10, gives us another perspective on redemption. Here, Paul talks about redemption through Christ's blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace that he lavished on us.

Finally, let's consider the last part of Ephesians 1:7-10. Here, Paul talks about God making known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ. This is a reminder that redemption is part of God's grand plan.
