Redemption In Christ - Romans 3:24

Interesting to note that the first blessing in Christ is redemption. In Romans 3:24, we read "being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus."

To have a better appreciation of verse 24, we need to read the blessing in its context;
Romans 3:21-26 (New King James Version)
21 But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets,
22 even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all (and on all) who believe. For there is no difference;
23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
24 being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,
25 whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed,
26 to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.

Here the Apostle Paul wrote that we, through faith in Jesus Christ, received His righteousness because of the redemptive work of our Savior and as a result, we are justified by Him. God is a just God and He cannot let any person off lightly unless he pays the price. Well, in our case, Jesus came and paid the price for us and now we are redeemed and we belong to God. That is why we can now call Him Abba Daddy to His glory. Amen.
