Ransomed, Raised and Called

May 25, 2010

O that every believer would know the GLORY of what has happened to them! Do you believer know what God has done for you and in you?

“He ransomed us from sin and wrath by the blood of Christ and paid the debt for sinners to have eternal life. He raised Jesus from the dead so that the union with Jesus gives eternal life that never fades away. He called us from darkness to light and from death to life through the gospel and gave us eyes to see and ears to hear. He made the light of the glory of God in the face of Christ shine in our hearts through the gospel. And we believed. We embraced Christ for the Treasure that he is.

You were ransomed with the imperishable blood of Christ. You were raised with Christ from the dead to an eternally living hope. You were called from death to life like Lazarus, and you saw Christ for the Treasure that he is. You were born again. You received him and were saved.”

John Piper, Finally Alive

    This is excellent, Amy.
    Ransomed, Raised, Called. You do a fantastic job putting these posts together. I’ve told several friends about your site, as it’s so God-glorifying. The content is always rich and never dumbed down.
